Ascent to the "Am Flach" (Tettensjoch/Kreuzjoch), from there turn right to the Elsalm and then on the AV trail 534 steeply ascending to the Lachtalscharte. Now crossing partly very steep slopes to the Gamshütte. Direct descent on the AV trail 534 to the Brunnhaus district in Finkenberg. Return by public bus.
