Description

This route starts from the car park in Praxmar and heads towards the Schefalm mountain hut. From there, follow the trail towards Oberstkogel. Below the Oberstkogel, continue towards the summit of Zischgeles. For the return hike, you can either double back the same way or make a circular route by following the trail that zigzags steeply down to Satteljoch and Kampljoch before returning to the starting point. The name Zischgeles comes from "Franziskus" and his Tyrolean nickname "Zischg".
