The Josefweg is a spiritual circular route from Lake Traunsee to Lake Attersee and back in 3 daily stages. The 2nd stage leads from Weyregg am Attersee to the Großalm.

Stage 2:   
Today's stage is the shortest at 17 km.
The Jubiläumsallee takes you to the show aquarium and you can also make a detour to the parish church in Weyregg. The hiking trail then continues along the Attersee-Ostuferweg, which initially includes the Wasser-Roas-Weg (interesting information boards about Lake Attersee).
 
After a good hour's walk, the Gasthof Bramosen is a good place to stop for a bite to eat (last option until today's destination).
From Alexenau, the route climbs steeply towards Bramosen, partly on paths, partly on forest roads.
At the Seeleitenstüberl you can fill up with fresh spring water, after about 500 metres you head east and stay on forest roads for the rest of the day - there are crossroads along the way with the evocative names of Praterstern and Almstall.
The forest roads lead slightly uphill, mostly downhill - you can therefore use the route well for intensive conversations or an inner retreat.
As soon as the forest road joins the main road, keep right and walk approx. 800 m westwards. Don't miss a visit to the Nadasdy chapel.
The 'Gasthof Großalm' sign points to today's destination.

You can make good use of the longer "end of the day" to get to know the Großalm better, as the house has a very interesting history with a beautiful house chapel.

Total walking time 4 - 5 h, 17 km
