  • Directions

    From Latschau (fire station parking lot), the path gently ascends along the edge of the forest until shortly before the Hotel Montabella. From there, the path continues a short distance on the paved road. You reach a junction. Take the left path. This leads slightly downhill to the old sawmill of Mülli-Ferdi, which is located by the roaring Rasafeibach stream. Crossing the Rasafeibach bridge, the hike continues. You walk along the Gafazutweg (Aqua path) to the junction. Across the Gafadura area, you hike uphill towards Sanüel. Once you reach the top, turn left and follow the wide path further to the Berggasthof Grabs. You have then reached the highest point of this hike. You probably want to change clothes or have a refreshment. You can do this at the inn. Freshly strengthened, you can then start the descent. Via Grabsweg and Ziegerbergstraße, you hike back to the starting point.
