Description

The ascent starts at the parking place Budam, to which you get from the district Obermauern. The way up to the Schmiedleralm takes about 2 to 2,5 hours. The driveway from Budam leads to a rather narrow walkway, which you follow across alpine pastures through the valley Großes Nilltal all the way to the hut Nilljochhütte. From here, it is just a few hundred more metres on another alpine driveway before you reach the Schmiedleralm.
