Despite its mountaintop location, the Steinermandl panoramic platform is very easy to get to. From the mountain terminal of the Jochtal cable car, follow path number 1A for about 2.5 kilometres past the Ochsenalm pasture – it’s a 93-metre climb that will take you more or less 45 minutes. Along the way, seize the opportunity to take in the fantastic view of the surrounding mountains – Instagram-worthy shots are guaranteed!
