The Kampsteiner Schwaig (closed) lies just a few meters below the Kampstein summit. An ideal last stop for a summit hike from Sankt Corona.
Opis
Along forest roads through quiet woods and past alpine meadows where you can see cows grazing, it goes from St. Corona up to 1400 meters in altitude to the Kampsteiner Schwaig. The path intersects with the family adventure trail, which offers various play stations. "Pure nature" can be experienced not only on the hike but also at the hut (closed). From the Kampsteiner Schwaig you quickly reach the Kampstein summit at 1467 m. From here you can also do a Schwaigenwanderung over the Wechsel, descend via the family adventure trail back to the valley, or take a regional route to join the Way on the Vienna Alps Arc.
In winter, it is best to take cross-country skis and join the Wechsel panorama trail.

Opis trasy Hike to Kampsteiner Schwaig (from St. Corona)
From our starting point at the church in St. Corona, we hike uphill in a southern direction. First, we walk on the paved path and turn left first, then right again, crossing the former ski lift route several times. We come to a junction where we can take a detour to the Ödenhof on the right. To stay on our route, we now turn left and reach a forest road. At the first fork, we keep right and then continue straight until we reach the paved Orthof road. After the Orthof inn, we turn right up a path. We follow this path, at the reservoir pond keep to the right, and thus reach the Almrausch hut. Following the signpost towards Kampsteiner Schwaig, we reach Kampsteiner Schwaig via a paved path.
