    The mountain tour starts at the Hochtannbergpass at an altitude of 1,676 m. Thus, 857 metres of altitude must be conquered. The trail leads between wild flowers and fresh alpine herbs towards Widdersteinhütte. Just before the hut, turn left to get to the rock climb. From here follow the markings on the rock. After a few short climbing passages, follow the partly exposed ridge to the summit cross. At the summit cross you will be rewarded with a breathtaking panoramic view. Breathe and enjoy the fresh, invigorating mountain air before the return journey is imminent. The descent takes place via the Hochalppass back to the Hochtannbergpass.

    Touring.
