    Mountaineering

    The ascent of the Großer Widderstein is advisable from Baad in the counterclockwise direction. Up to and from the actual entry is a mountain tour without much difficulty. Ascent in the summit channel demands surefootedness and mindfulness, especially due to loose scree. Attention: in the summer months heavily frequented.

    Refreshments Ascent: Bärgünthütte
    Refreshments Descent: Upper Widdersteinhütte, Hinter Gemsteltalalpe, Gestell-Schönebodenalpe, Vordergemsteltal (Insider's tip), Tonisgemsteltalalpe

    Hiking

    Since you can drive up to the Hochtannbergpass and from there "only" about 3 hours to the summit, it is especially at the weekend in good weather often incredibly full. Anyone who has the opportunity to make this great peak during the week should do so.

    Hiking

    The complete tour around and on the Widderstein is free of summiteers in flip flops, as there is no cable car there. So you meet like-minded people. The view is priceless, and once you've got the alpine climb, it's the ultimate reward.
