Great, medium-distance tour in the rear Navistal valley past alpine pastures and wide valley basins. Through varied terrain exposed to the south, you climb here mostly in the sunshine against a wonderful backdrop.
From the hamlet of Grün, you first follow a forest path until just before the managed Peeralm. Continue through a denser forest and you finally reach a wide basin, the so-called Grünbergalm. Along beautiful south-facing slopes, you now climb from floor to floor and over many a great slope to the saddle below the Grünbergspitze. From here it is not far to the summit via the ridge. As the Grünbergspitze is quite dominant in terms of its surroundings, you have a wonderful all-round view, starting from the Inntal and the Karwendel over the Hintertux glacier to the Stubai peaks. The descent along the beautifully sloping terrain from crest to crest is also a real pleasure.
ROUTE DESCRIPTION
From the Grün car park (for which a fee is charged), follow the forest path in a north-easterly direction to the Peeralm at the start of the tour. Shortly before a large ditch, turn left and continue along the forest road. After a few minutes you reach a signpost marking a trail that turns right - here you have the option of either staying on the forest trail or taking the somewhat steeper shortcut. Finally, you reach a bend in the thinning forest, again with a signpost. Here you stay on the forest road in a constant northerly direction and reach a wide valley basin. From here, the trail climbs over a first steep step in hairpin bends to the Vögeleralm, beautifully situated on a hilltop. There you turn off over another hilltop into the high valley on the right, to the north. With a little care in the choice of the ascent track (some steeper slopes), you follow the course of the valley and finally reach the hermitage below the summit with a bend in a north-easterly direction. Several steeper slopes that have to be climbed on the way to the Einsattelung can often be very hard, especially in late winter in the early morning hours; it is worth using crampons here. On the right side of the saddle is the Grafmartspitze, on the left it goes along the ridge in a now westerly direction up the last 100 metres of altitude to the summit.
Descent along the wide basin close to the ascent track. The steep slopes in the upper area are to be enjoyed with caution in high winter.

A stop on the sun terrace rounds off the tour experience perfectly with delicious homemade dumplings.
