Hochwart summit hike

On foot, it goes from Weisstannen along the Gufelbach to Batöni, to the impressive waterfall arena with its three huge waterfalls. Along the lively stream, the power spot path gently ascends into the forest, past meadows to two large stones that look like a mighty double stone, as they stand close together. The route continues to the Batöni waterfall arena. From left to right, we have the Piltschinabachfall, the Sässbachfall, and the Muttenbachfall in front of us, which measure 81, 86, and 45 meters in length respectively. At the waterfalls, it goes up to the left towards Stofel. Along the Lavtinabach, the path leads up to the Lavtinasattel. Now it is only a few steps to the Hochwart.
