The route starts from the shelter towards Gurnigel watershed. After a first gentle descent on the main axis, the path turns right down to the Höll. After a rapid and steep descent, the way steadily goes uphill—sometimes steeper, sometimes less steep—back up to the main axis. On the wide track, it now returns to the starting point. And those who haven’t had enough can do it a second or third time.
