The hike to the alp lake Giglachsee in the Dachstein Tauern region begins at the parking lot just before the Ursprungalm hut at 1600m. From Rohrmoos or Pichl-Preunegg you reach the parking lot quite comfortable on the gravel road toll. Even when driving you have lots of great vantage points. Especially from the Moarhofalm and Ursprungalm you have a wonderful view of the valley and to the mountain Dachstein. Behind the Ursprungalm hut is the mountain Steirische Kalkspitze 2.459m as a beautiful background. If you want to stay on the Ursprungalm too, it will be for a 4 - bed rooms, two 3 - bed rooms, a camp for 4 - persons and a camp for 16 people available. The Ursprungalm was also one of the locations for the film "Heidi".

Just after the Ursprungalm the broad, rocky trail begins in the Schladming Tauern with a gradient of 20% on the first 800m. The remaining 1.4 kilometers through the cow field with many flowering bushes have even an average gradient of 14 percent. The Giglachsee hut is a shelter and is located a few meters from the Preuneggsattel at 1955m. It is also possible on the Giglachsee hut overnight in a room or camp. Even a shower facility with hot water is provided.
Who connects the Giglachsee hiking tour with one overnight stay at the Giglachseehütte gets, if only because certain of the sunset and sunrise, most impressions of the beautiful mountain scenery in the landscape region "Naturpark Sölktäler".

The following circular route around the two lakes Giglachsee is 4 km long. To the first Giglachsee you go about 40 altimeter down. On the other side of the second Giglachsee you walk on a narrow trail to the highest point of this hike tour to the Ignaz-Mattis lodge about 65Hm up. The Giglachsee change it depending on the sunlight colour from deep blue to green shimmering.
The Ignaz-Mattis lodge at 1991m offers not only the tasting of regional specialties but also a overnight with 7 rooms and 50 bed storage bins.

After the small slope from the top to Giglachsee Preuneggsattel up it goes back to the starting point at the parking lot of the 2.2 km long pasture Ursprungalm hut back about 350 meters down.

On the whole hiking tour you have to count with a couple of mountain bikers, as the Giglachsee MTB tour is on the same path. The road is wide enough. Thus, for example also off-road vehicles to supply the huts Giglachseehütte and Ignaz-Mattis Hütte.
