Description

The starting point for this route is the bus stop „Galtür Tschafein“. The „1,000 vertical metre trail“ starts here in the direction of Sonnenkogel and Friedrichshafener Hütte lodge. After about 200 metres in altitude you reach a fork in the trail. This is followed by a further ascent through steeper terrain up to the top of the hill with several lookout points. Once at the top, there are two options for the way back: either via the road towards the Friedrichshafener
Hütte (2,151 m, possible stop for refreshments) or back via the ascent route.

Tip: The tour is perfect for all altitude-hungry Cross Trailers.

Mountain lodges: Friedrichshafener Hütte
