    Mountaineering

    This wonderful spot is located on a small hill in the immediate vicinity of the Hochganghaus. Two benches invite you to linger, and from up there, you can enjoy a stunning view of the valley.

    Mountaineering

    On the way to the Hochgangsscharte, you briefly go through a forest section with shade. After that, the forest disappears and it gets steeper and steeper and your legs will burn. Towards the end of the climb, it becomes more and more exposed and sometimes you walk close to the slope - including the occasional wire rope. So you should have a head for heights and be sure-footed! Keep your eyes open on the way because you might see and hear the odd marmot. :)
