Description

Take the Silvrettabahn or the Fimbabahn, then the Flimjochbahn to get to the 2.750 m Flimjoch, where the Austria-Switzerland boundary proceeds. From there follow the route to Bürkelkopf, whose summit cross sits enthroned at 3.032 m. This tour proceeds through high alpine terrain and requires sure-footedness and a head for heights. Return section: same route back.
