"If the Tschirgant wears a hat, the weather will be good again, if he wears a sabel, it will be miserable", as the old Imst saying goes. We have nothing to add to this.

Tour character

Imst's local mountain and popular viewing summit. Initially an easy route across alpine meadows and gravel paths, later rocky sections and stony ascents. A short passage secured by ropes requires surefootedness and a head for heights.
