Follow the Schumbergerweg (approx. 1 km) until you see the Pirkerkirche church on the right. Turn left again into the forest and follow the forest path. Pass the pond with the cozy Hollywood swing - ideal for a short break - and after approx. 100m turn left again into the forest. Follow the path up to the Pirkerkogel (altitude 666m). After the "summit", continue along the path (be careful - there is a short, steep descent!), then follow the Pirkhofweg for around 500m. Here you will be rewarded with a wonderful view over the whole of Lake Wörthersee! Turn left again at the houses and follow the red markings (hiking trail B) past Aussicht West to Krumpendorf.
