This shady seating area is located shortly after the Nunningerberghütte, towards Hirnichopf. The path towards Hirnichopf runs behind the bench.

Hirnichopf Ridge

Highlight • Trail

Nice ridge from the Nunningerhöchi to the Hirnichopf. Although it is marked as a yellow hiking trail, it is clearly a mountain hiking trail. Good footwear and sure-footedness are recommended.
