Wonderful hike, which scores with fantastic panorama!

The tour to the Rantentörl is a popular hike for young and old. It is recommended (as long as the weather cooperates) to pack your swimsuit to cool off in the Rantensee. Furthermore, the Ebenhandlhütte offers a stop for refreshments (please note the opening hours!).
