Description

From the old parish church (1524m) follow the forest road. Then take a steep path to the Kircher Almen (2104m). From there, continue to Hals (2136m), where you will find the entrance to a steep gully. Continue, especially in the lower half of the trail, over gravel and boulders to the main summit of the Eggenkofel (2591m). Surefootedness and a head for heights are a prerequisite here!
