From the village of Afritz you begin the hike on Verditzer Strasse in the Lärchenboden parking lot, where there are plenty of spots to park.  From there, the intermediate hike takes you to the idyllic Lake Schwarzsee.  After a stroll around the small lake you can get delicious food in the Schwarzsee Hut, which is open from the middle of May until the beginning of October.  After that you get on hiking trail 28 and take a right towards "Steinhauserhütte" after about 1 kilometer.  Shortly after the hut you will reach Verditzer Strasse again, which you stay on until getting back to the starting point.  

You can find parking in the Lärchenboden parking lot.  

The starting point of this hike is  not  reachable with public transportation.
