Further information and useful links

The starting point of the hike is the Schneeberg parking lot. From there, follow the forest road along Trail No. 5 towards Pertinger Alm. About halfway along the route, a path branches off to the left through the forest to the Devil's Stone. According to legend, the devil brought the stone here. Furious with the farmers of Mühlwald, he wanted to roll it down into the valley from Mutenock. But when dawn broke and the morning bell rang, he was forced to leave the stone behind and disappear. To this day, the Devil's Stone still lies in the forest.

Continue through the forest to the serviced Pertinger Alm. From here, you can enjoy wide views over the Puster Valley and taste regional specialities. Away from the bustle of the towns, this is a peaceful place to relax in the mountains. For the return, follow the same route back. The hike ends back at the Schneeberg parking lot.
