Description

The start of this hike is at the parking lot Glanz (1,550m). A beautiful path leads up to the “Edelweiss meadow”, from where you can already enjoy a breath-taking panorama of the peaks of the three-thousanders of the Venediger mountain range. Here, follow the signpost to Bretterwandspitze. From this point on, the path is no longer marked but always clearly visible. It first leads along a ridge to Bunzkögele (2,430m). Then it's a short descent into a gap with fascinating rock formations — a particularly popular photo opportunity. A last short climb leads to the summit where you can admire the highest peaks in East Tyrol (Großglockner, Großvenediger, ...).
