Schober

Schober is a mountain rising to 1328 meters (4356 feet) with forest trails and meadows surrounding its slopes near Lake Fuschl. The landscape displays varied terrain with open grassland and wooded sections along the routes to the summit.

The mountain paths developed originally as essential routes connecting the communities of Sankt Lorenz and Fuschl am See. These historic routes were created by local residents to traverse the hilly terrain and link settlements together.

The trails on Schober have been part of local daily life for generations, connecting the villages of Sankt Lorenz and Fuschl am See through the mountain landscape. People use these paths today to explore nature and spend time in the forests and meadows.

The main route begins at Forsthaus Wartenfels where parking is available, and requires sturdy footwear on the mountain paths. The best time to hike is during drier months when the trails are in better condition.

The ascent via Frauenkopf reveals different vegetation zones that change with increasing elevation along the way. This alternative route shows how flora and surroundings transform during the climb to the peak.
