On the befahrberen forest in Windautal that extends to the foot of Kröndlhorns leads, you get to the Steinberg home and Gamskogelhütte . The shortest, but also the most difficult route leads steeply on the eastern flank from the Gamskogelhütte via the Ahornaualm up to the Lagfeldenalm. From here it goes through open terrain over a non-paved, but marked path up to the summit. An ascent from the Steinberghaus is also possible and leads through the Steinberggraben over the Neuhögenalmen and the Oberkaralm up to the Lodronjoch. From there you can get to the Steinbergstein via the Ramkarkopf.
All hiking trails, but especially those on the eastern flank, require good surefootedness . In winter the Steinbergstein is a popular and challenging destination for ski tours .
