From Andrian along the Gaiderschlucht to the ruins of Festenstein Castle - the path requires surefootedness - further to the hamlet of Gaid (Moarhof), a short stretch on hiking trail no. 8, then further on hiking trail no. 6, then detour to Burgstalleck and descent via the saddle path to Bittnerhof and back to Andrian.
The hike offers beautiful viewpoints: plan a short stop to enjoy the panorama: at the Festenstein Castle ruins, at Burgstalleck and at Schlosspichl.

Author’s recommendation
Take your time to enjoy the magnificent nature of the gorge and visit Festenstein Castle (watch out for special opening hours). Dining options: Moarhof and Bittnerhof (watch out for days off).
