The forest road leads relatively steeply with the bike up to the beautiful alpine terrain on the south side of the Rofan near the Bayreuther Hut. The view above the tree line is magnificent (1600m).
Hike:
Behind the Bayreuther Hut, follow the sign "Sonnwendjoch / Sagzahn" and hike through the mountain meadows around Berger Kopf and continue to the beautiful summit cross of Vorderes Sonnwendjoch (2224m). Continue to the distinctive summit shape of the Sagzahn (2228m). From the summit, descend directly over an exposed but well-secured path with easy climbing sections through the steep west flank, then ascend slightly before the Schafsteigsattel and continue diagonally up the grassy summit flank to the Rofanspitze (2259m).
The descent leads via Schafsteigsattel and Marchgatterl past the Zireiner Alms (1698m) and Bergalm back to the Bayreuther Hut. Then descend by bike to the starting point.
