Tour description:

You start your tour at the Seegatterl car park near Reit im Winkl . Past the motorhome parking space, the tour leads in the direction of the winter hiking trail to the Winklmoos Alm , which you leave in front of a striking rock face and continue up towards the Dürrnbachalmen . Past the alpine pastures, the tour continues towards Lemberg until you finally reach a steep slope. You pass this in several crossings to the mountain station of the nostalgic chairlift on the Dürrnbachhorn. Finally, it's about 150 meters until you reach the Dürrnbachhorn via a saddle (if there is little snow) or over the ridge (if there is enough snow, be careful: stay in the middle of the ridge!).

Follow your ascent track downhill again over the free slopes to the Dürrnbachalmen and finally on the ascent track to the Winklmoos Alm to the Roßalmlifts . From here we can either take the Roßalmlift up and use the ski run in the direction of Seegatterl, or we follow the small lift westwards to the crossover of the ski slope and take the main run.

Note: Pay attention to alpine dangers!
