Directions:
Starting from the pay parking lot (P6), follow the path along the Leutascher Ache in an eastern direction for 100 meters. Shortly after the pedestrian bridge, turn right onto a steep path that leads in serpentines through light forest. After the first ascent, a wonderful view opens up over Leutasch and the Puittal valley. The imposing summit of the Arnplattenspitze in front of your eyes, you hike about 900 meters through large pine fields in the direction of Weißlehnkopf (2,002 m) until you reach the signposted turnoff Hoher Sattel on the right. Here follow the difficult (black) path straight ahead towards the summit. Surefootedness and a head for heights are absolutely necessary, as the last part up to the Arnplattenspitze is secured with a steel rope.

At the summit cross you can enjoy a breathtaking 360 degree panorama over the entire high plateau of the Seefeld region. After a well-deserved rest, hike back to the junction and take the path on the left towards Hoher Sattel. This is a steep and in sections gravelly path that leads to the wide forest road no. 801. Follow this path through the Satteltal back to the starting point Leutasch/Ahrn.

Note: An early start is recommended, as the tour is very sunny and hot. Take enough water with you, as there are no opportunities to refill your bottles on the way.
