Description

The starting point for this hike is the Tiefentalalm parking lot in Langer Grund. From there, follow the signs no. 76 in the direction of Sonnjoch. At the first junction, above the Ochsenschlag Niederalm, continue along the forest road until just before the Seefeldalm. Passing a small mountain stream, you hike up over the summit ridge until you reach the Sonnjoch (2287 m).
Back to the starting point you follow the signposting no. 76 in the direction of the Tiefentalalm.

There are no refreshment stops on the tour. Therefore, we strongly recommend that you take enough food and drink with you.
