Maurach - Durrawand - Dalfaz Alm - Schützensteig - Buchauer Alm – Maurach
From the valley station of the Rofan cable car, the route first takes you past the Naturhotel Alpenblick to a wooden bridge. After crossing it, a forest path branches off to the left. After about 300 metres, a narrow hiking trail continues to the right, winding uphill via switchbacks to the Durraalm (not serviced). Continue along the Durrawand until you reach the Dalfaz Alm (1,693 metres). From there, walk towards the Erfurter Hütte to a viewpoint bench. Here, the Schützensteig trail branches off to the right, leading across a mountain meadow and through the forest to the ski slope. The trail then continues along the ski slope to the Buchauer Alm*. You can descend to Maurach either via the forest road or the hiking trail; both lead back to the valley station.
*) Sadly, the Buchauer Alm was destroyed in a tragic fire. It is not yet clear whether the mountain hut will be rebuilt.
