At Griesner Alm in Kaiserbachtal head left across a brook and follow the wide path towards Latschenbrennerei pine oil distillery. Just before the distillery, a narrow trail branches off to the right and into the forest. The trail climbs steeply, gaining altitude as it traces its way past the rock towers of Lärchegg and Mitterkaiser to Kleines Griesner Kar cirque. From the cirque it is an easy hike to Fritz-Pflaum-Hütte (not serviced), a gorgeous old stone hut set in the middle of a rugged alpine landscape. The hut was built in memory of Fritz Pflaum, a prominent alpinist who loved the Wilder Kaiser mountains. The trail then zizags up between two precipitous peaks - Mitterkaiser and Predigtstuhl - to Grosses Griesner Kar cirque.
