The Drei-Gipfel-Runde three peaks circuit

Description

A beautiful and challenging trail running route that covers all three of the surrounding peaks. If all three peaks are too much, you can simply take a shortcut from Boscheben by following the Zirbenweg trail to skip the summit of Patscherkofel.

Starting at the mountain station of the Patscherkofel cable car, this trail follows the Zirbenweg trail eastwards on a slight incline to the "Issboden" (gravel, rock). From there, after a 90° bend on the right, the trail climbs steadily to the first peak, the "Neunerspitze", which is reached after more than 400 metres in altitude. Continue in a southerly direction alternating uphill/downhill along a narrow hiking trail to the next peak, the "Viggarspitze". Continue west downhill to the Boscheben Alpine Inn, from where you climb the "Patscherkofel", the third and last peak of the tour after a further 230 metres in altitude. From the summit of the Patscherkofel, the trail descends directly to the mountain station of the Patscherkofel cable car.

A head for heights and good surefootedness are prerequisites for this tour!
