Description

From the valley station of the Karwendel cable car, the trail first leads up to the Bärenbadalm. It then continues southwards along a steadily ascending path over the Weißenbachsattel (1,695 metres) to the Weißenbachalm (1,607 metres). From here, a forest road descends to the Weißenbachhütte (not serviced) and further down to the  district Lärchenwiese in Maurach.
The route ends at Seespitz – a lakeside area and the name of the nearby Achensee boat landing.
Return to Pertisau is possible by regional bus, boat, or on foot via the lakeside path.
