The area around the Schafgrübler is characterised by its peace and solitude. Apart from chamois, sheep, marmots and isolated hikers, you are alone here almost the whole day. The ascent to the summit requires surefootedness and a head for heights.
On the marked trail, no. 132, we hike over grassy slopes on the orographic left side of the valley on the connecting trail to the Adolf Pichler Hut/Starkenburger Hut, at the third junction we leave the high trail and climb steeply in small hairpin bends to the uppermost part of the Viller Grube. Over a small scree slope we continue up to the Horntaler Joch. From here we reach the frequently visited summit on a marked trail over the northeast ridge.
