Description

Starting from the village square in Kappl the shady route no. 9 takes you to Oberhaus. From there continue right, uphill slightly, via a tamac road until a consistently climbing forest trail begins after around 300 m to the left. Heading past the wildlife feeding area you reach a fork in the road, which branches off to Diasalpe on the left and Durrichalpe on the right. At Durrichalpe there are a few traditional alpine lodges which are no longer managed today, yet still provide very nice rest areas.
Return section: via forest path no. 11 to Oberbichl or via the more steep short cut to Oberbichl and from there continue via the municipal road to Kappl.
