**Properties:**

 **Description:**
The regional trail around the **Strubklamm**, a dream route in the Salzburg area of the Salzkammergut, leads to several **wonders of nature**. Perhaps the most beautiful of these is the "Plötz," an enchanting gorge with lovingly restored mills, an impressive waterfall, and a natural bathing area. But the first stage destination also offers sights: **Ebenau** was a small center of iron processing in the 17th century, remembered by several historic buildings.

**Directions:**
From the parish church in **Faistenau**, follow the road towards Ebenau to the sports ground, turn right before it, and hike to the forest climbing trail. To the left at the facility, descend in the forest towards the Schmiedbach and after the ascent again between fields to an asphalted farm road, which you reach at the hamlet of Lidaun. On this road, go right to a fork at the forest edge, from which you ascend left to the nearby junction with **Lidaunstraße** (771 m).

Follow this sharply right until, after 150 m, you turn sharply left onto a forest road (signposted "Lidaungipfel, Bärenhöhle," no. 44). It leads through the forested southwest slopes of the **Lidaunberg**. At about 1,000 m above sea level, the path equipped with five information panels leads right to the Bear Cave and to the summit cross on the 1,223 m high **Lidaun summit** (worthwhile detour, but about 1:00 h additional walking time).

The hiking route towards Ebenau, however, goes left through the forest slopes. From a hunting hut, follow a forest road to the saddle (932 m) and about 500 m further until a hiking trail descends left to the **Gängstraße** (790 m) between Faistenau and Hof. After crossing it, walk between fields to the nearby forest edge and descend to the **Wiestal national road**. This is also crossed. From the parking lot on the other side, walk south along the **Schroffenaustraße** past the hamlet of Schlag and to the two farms in **Hinterschroffenau** (750 m), also called "Lodagei." 3:00 h There, turn left towards Ebenau into the Plötz. On this path, which leads right around the forest hill into the gorge of the Rettenbach, grain was once carried to the Schroffenaumühle. You reach this small wooden building from the 16th century by walking straight past a junction – it stands directly above the 25 m high waterfall of the "Plötz."

The somewhat exposed path zigzags down to the Edermühle (waterfall detour to the right) and continues to the "double" Pertiller mill. There turn right (on the left, you could still visit the Schildauer and Hofbauer mills) and cross the **Rettenbach** on a footbridge. Then, on the Arnoweg, about 1 km of ups and downs westward until you turn left on the forest trail into the hamlet of Unterberg and – turning left again – reach **Ebenau** (623 m).

From the elementary school, a short detour leads left to the historic Waschlmühle; straight ahead, you go under the bypass road into the village center with the historic Fürstenstöckl (tourist office). 1:00 h

**Tip:**
**Note**: Bus connection Faistenau – Hof (line 155) and Hof – Ebenau (line 154).

**Safety guidelines:**

- In alpine terrain, be aware of the danger of falling rocks.

- Through early summer, you may encounter steep snowfields or firn gullies – especially during icy conditions, there is an acute risk of falling and thus fatal injury!

- Due to storm damage, forestry work or construction work, individual trail sections may be difficult or impassable at times.

- Cows in the alpine meadows are often curious. Because they are nursing mothers, they develop a strong tendency to protect their calves. Therefore, move through cow pastures quietly, keep at least 20 metres of distance to the animals and never pet calves! In the case of threatening behaviour (pawing, stamping) slowly back away (do not turn your back). Keep dogs on a leash. They must not bark at or chase cows. In the case of an attack, the dog must be released from the leash.

**Equipment:**
For all stages, you will need hiking or mountain boots with treaded rubber soles as well as wind- and rainproof clothing. A change of clothes and a small first-aid kit should also be included in your backpack. The amount of provisions you should pack depends on the number of available rest stops. In any case, you should always take along plenty to drink. Telescopic poles are helpful, especially when walking downhill.

Rindenhütte

Die original Rindenhütte, auch Holzknechtselde genannt, diente Holzknechten als Unterschlupf, wenn sie bei der Holzbringung am Abend nicht zu ihren Häusern zurück kehren konnten, weil der Weg zu weit war.

Holzknechtselden - Rindenhütten waren einfache Behausungen aus Holz. Sie dienten in früherer Zeit Holzknechten als Unterschlupf, wenn sie nach der Arbeit im Wald nicht nach Hause zurückkehrten, weil sich der Weg nicht auszahlte.
 Bauweise
 Sie bauten den Unterschlupf aus den Materialien, die ihnen zur Verfügung standen, also den dünneren Stangen und der Rinde von den gefällten Bäumen, die wenn möglich in einem Stück von den Bäumen geschält wurde. Die Form ließ Wasser gut ablaufen und so konnte auch das Wetter den Hütten nicht allzu viel anhaben. Sie waren an drei Seiten geschlossen und an der Vorderseite befand sich der Ein,- und Ausgang.
 Einrichtung
 In der Mitte der Holzknechtselde befand sich die Feuerstelle, aus Rundhölzern und Steinplatten errichtet, wo auf einem offenen Feuer in einer einfachen Eisenpfanne das „Muas“, welches nur aus Wasser, Mehl, Salz und einer größeren Menge Schmalz oder Butter bestand, zubereitet und gekocht wurde. Die Inneneinrichtung bestand darüber hinaus aus zwei schmalen längsseitig gelegenen und einer tieferen an der Rückseite gelegenen Holzpritschen, die mit Tannen- oder Fichtenreisig belegt als Schlafstätten dienten. Ober den Schlafstätten und auch über der Feuerstelle konnten nasse Bekleidung und Sonstiges an Stangen oder Haken aufgehängt werden.
 Die Rindenhütte hier wurde etwas „modernisiert“. Mit Brettern als Untergrund für die Rinde. Dies dient einer längeren Lebensdauer und auch dazu, dass es schneller warm wird im Inneren.

**Vis-à-vis users**

1\. The tours presented for hiking, walking, biking and road biking, mountain biking, motorbiking, horseback riding, climbing, cross-country skiing, and going on skiing and snowshoe tours etc. are to be considered non-paid tour recommendations and only serve as non-binding information. We have no intention of concluding a contract with the users of this website. The utilisation of the data does not lead to the establishment of a contract with us.

The data may only be used for private use; any commercial use is prohibited. In particular, it is not permissible to offer the data on commercially run websites, file-sharing platforms etc. or to use it to develop commercial products. Downloading data does not imply that users are granted rights to the data concerned.

The tour recommendations posted were created with utmost care; nevertheless, we assume no liability for the correctness and completeness of the information.

We point out that neither the tour recommendations included on this website nor the associated data and information were posted by us, but rather by third parties (Art. 16 Austrian E-Commerce Act). We have no influence on whether the details provided (e.g. distance, level of difficulty, change in altitude, description etc.) are authentic, correct and complete. We do not review these third-party contents. For this reason, we assume no liability for the authenticity, correctness and completeness of the information.

Construction-related measures or other influences (e.g. landslides and similar occurrences) can lead to temporary or permanent changes in a route (e.g. loss of a bridge and similar occurrences). Such occurrences can lead to part of the route or the entire route becoming impassable.

The use of the data as well as undertaking (riding, walking, taking etc.) the recommended tours or using the network of paths occurs at users’ own risk and on their authority. In particular, users themselves are responsible for the choice of route, outdoor orientation, adherence to traffic rules, supplies and equipment for tours listed in Point 1 (e.g. bicycle etc.), wearing a helmet, estimating their own fitness, recognising dangers and maintaining an appropriate velocity. We exclude ourselves from any liability whatsoever for damages, in particular accidents, that occur whilst taking part in the recommended tours.

2.Some of the tours lead over roads with normal traffic conditions. Please observe that there is an increased risk which can be avoided by means of appropriate attention and proper estimation and implementation of one’s own abilities. For this reason, please travel a route that is unfamiliar to you slowly and with special care. Pay constant attention to potential dangers and always observe traffic. Do not leave the routes featured in descriptions.

The potential use of private roads, in particular forestry roads and agricultural transport roads, can be subject to legal restrictions, which must be observed and adhered to.

The normal traffic rules apply. Each user (e.g. biker, motorbiker) is responsible for adhering to these rules and maintaining his/her bike/vehicle and its equipment (lights, brakes etc.) in good working order. Each user is also responsible for ensuring that he/she rides at a velocity that is appropriate for the conditions and his/her skill level and for maintaining sufficient distance to the rider in front. We explicitly recommend adjusting velocity to correspond to the respective field of vision, wearing a helmet, using reflective clothing (or similar) and employing bicycle lights in line with regulations.

3.Each tour requires good physical fitness as well as detailed planning. We explicitly recommend only taking the tours in the case of optimal healthiness.

We recommend that you conclude an accident and liability insurance policy. Use an onboard computer that displays the respective kilometres travelled per day and is calibrated for the front wheel.

4.Special for mountain bikers – Fair-play rules:

Mountain biking is one of the most wonderful outdoor leisure-time activities. Whilst biking or on a mountain biking tour, mountains and lakes, meadows and cabins are re-discovered in new ways. A couple of rules for fair play in the forest help to avoid conflicts whilst mountain biking.

a.Pedestrians have the right of way: We are accommodating and friendly to pedestrians and hikers. Upon encountering these fellow travellers, we alert them by using the bicycle bell and slowly overtake them. We avoid paths with heavy pedestrian traffic altogether. Take nature into account: We do not leave refuse behind.

b.The braking distance should be half of the total distance visible: We ride at a controlled pace, are ready to brake and maintain a braking distance half as long as the total distance visible, especially in curves, because we always have to count on obstacles on the path. Damage to the path, stones, branches, wood piles, grazing livestock, cattle grids, barriers, tractor-type forestry machines and authorised vehicles pose dangers that we need to be ready for.

c.Don’t drink and drive!: Do not drink alcohol when mountain biking. Take care at stop-off points (dealing with bike racks, dirty shoes or clothing).

It is obligatory to provide first aid!

d.Marked routes, closed paths and blockades: Keep to the marked routes, observe the blockades and accept that these roads are primarily for agricultural and forestry use!

Blockades can often not be avoided and are in your own interest. Biking beyond the intended path and outside of opening times is punishable and turns us into illegal bikers.

e.We are guests in the forest and behave accordingly, including vis-à-vis forestry and hunting staff. Whilst mountain biking, mobile telephones and music players are forbidden! Biking requires your full attention.

f.Avoid unnecessary noise. Out of consideration to the animals living in the wild, we only bike during full daylight. As a principle, we always wear our helmet (even when riding uphill)! Don’t forget emergency supplies: We always have a repair set and bandages along.

g.Don’t overestimate your skills: We should not overdo it when it comes to biking technique and physical fitness. Take the level of difficulty posed by the route into consideration and make a precise estimate of your experience and skills as a biker (braking, bell, lights)!

h.Close gates: We approach grazing livestock at a walking pace and close every gate behind us. We should avoid causing escape and panic reactions in the animals. Nothing stands in the way of the fun and athletic challenge in the mountains and forests!

i.Traffic rules: The general traffic rules (StVO) apply for all the mountain biking routes and we adhere to them. Our bike therefore needs to be in perfect technical condition and equipped in line with the traffic rules, including brakes, a bell and lights. We inspect and service our mountain bikes regularly anyway.
