Description

Ascent from the Gramai Alm car park (1,263 metres) in a southerly direction over the Falzthurn stream to the Gramaier Grund. At an elevation of approx. 1,500m keep to the left and climb the wide Schneiderkar in an easterly direction. At the end of the cirque, the route turns to the left, the slope gets steeper and the cirque narrows until you reach the narrow Schneiderscharscharte.  
The descent follows the ascent route.
