Description

From Volkzeiner Hütte in the Winkeltal on a forest trail in a  north-westerly direction, after a few minutes bear left and proceed on a steep path via a steep section. At the road junction bear take a sharp turn, bearing south and proceed in a moderate climb up to the Goldtrögele, continuing on the north-easterly ridge, via which you get to the summit of the Hochgrabe in just a few minutes. Take care – in early summer there are still frequently snow fields.
