The route then follows the Elferstein to the summit of the [Zwölferhorn ](http://wolfgangsee.salzkammergut.at/en/home/austria/poi/401184/zwoelferhorn-mountain-cable-car.html)with great views.

Before you come to the first houses the path forks. Take the left fork along the Rieder Steig to snack restaurant Aschinger. Then follow route 23 via the Dorneralm and the Schafbergalm to summit of the 1.782m [Schafberg mountain](http://wolfgangsee.salzkammergut.at/en/home/austria/poi/400929/schafberg-mountain-railway.html).
