Description

From the starting point, follow a path over a bridge then continue to walk on the agricultural road. This flat and 
even road leads to the catered mountain hut Taschach Alm. Continue on this road for about 200 m, then turn right on a steep, but well-prepared track up to the Rifflsee lake. After crossing the stream, veer right to the catered mountain hut Riffelseehütte. Continue to walk along the Rifflsee lake to the Rifflseebahn top station. A little further turn right and descend on a track, which affords spectacular views of the Hirschtal v al-ley and along a path set in panoramic scenery to return to Mandarfen. From there, it is about 300 m to return to your starting point.
