    The start of this wonderful hike is in the Längenfeld district of Lehn. The ascent takes place via a trail that leads steadily uphill through dense forest. From time to time, you can catch a glimpse of the Lehner Waterfall. Except for a section of the path that goes over a well-secured stone slab, you walk on forest ground.  After about 2 hours of walking you reach the tree line and Stabelealm comes into view. You leave the turn-off to this hut on the right and continue walking through lush green meadows towards Innerbergalm. After a short break, you continue over the Hauer ridge towards Hauersee.  After some flatter and steeper sections in this cirque, you reach Hauersee which shimmers milky green to turquoise blue depending on the season. Surrounded by the so-called Fünffingerspitzen, you can enjoy once again the pleasant calm at 2300 meters altitude before you start the descent.
