    Relax again on the driveway with the Steffisalp-Express before you start. Now you have already left most altitude meters behind you and can march at your pace towards Wartherhornsattel. At the saddle, take the path towards Lech, until after approx. 30 minutes of the climbing path to the Karhorn summit. From here it is not far and you can see the massive summit cross before you. Back it’s the same way. Before you go back to the valley with the Steffisalp-Express, we recommend you to take a short break at the Hochalphhütte or the Punschhütte.

    Touring.
