Panoramic loop in Salzburg.
From the parking lot it starts quite steeply, you should already be sure-footed here, as it goes over sticks, stones and roots. The forest provides shade and coolness, especially on hot summer days. You walk in the direction of the Wandalm, an unattended hut, but shortly before you turn left. The forest opens up and it continues steeply on a meadow, more demanding sections will follow from here.

Trail reviews for Abtenau
Walked from Abtenau town. The walk was hard but it was gorgeous. At the top, just before you reach the viewpoint their is a cafe which serves soups and drinks etc. Toilets in the cafe. The worst/hardest part was the section between the cafe and viewpoint as it was very steep and muddy conditions (not a set path). We ended up doing the loop backwards as we went up the mountain on the roads and went down the mountain through the woods/forest. This was fine but walking downhill through the forest was tough as a lot of loose stones! Overall would recommend - we were very lucky with the sun and clear skies in October!!
