Coming from Tamsweg via Stadl an der Mur and St. Georgen ob Mrurau, drive straight on to Kaindorf.
At the end of the road is the Murauer Hütte, from where a forest path leads to the Frauenalpe summit. After crossing the old pistes and pastures above the hut, turn right at the so-called "Käserei" after approx. 1 km. Accompanied by beautiful views and stone pine forests, the path leads to the summit. After a short, very steep ascent at the end, you reach the Bernhard-Fest refuge after approx. 3 km. From there it is approx. 150m to the chapel and finally, after a further 30m, you reach the Frauenalpe summit with a magnificent 360° panorama. On fine days, you can see as far as Slovenia.
The way back is the same. Alternatively, you can take the Bernhard Fest Trail or the Frauenalpenstraße from the Murauer Hütte to Murau.
