Stage 1: Silbertal to Neue Heilbronner Hut
The starting point of this route is at the Kristbergbahn in Silbertal. From here, you can either take the hiking bus to the Lower Gaflunaalpe or walk directly from Silbertal on foot. However, the first stage is very long and you should have very good fitness.
From Silbertal, you follow the path into the rear Silbertal. The path passes the Fellimännle inn to the Lower Gaflunaalpe. From here it continues deeper into the rear Silbertal. At the upper Freschalpe, you continue to the Langsee.
After a short break at Langsee, the path leads you into the Schönverwall. Here you go right up to the Verbellner Winterjoch. Above the Scheid lakes you will find the Neue Heilbronner Hut.

Stage 2: Neue Heilbronner Hut to Gaschurn

After a short rest at Wiegensee, the path continues to the Inner Tafamuntmaisäß. Here you will find the Alpstöbli for a small refreshment.
Well rested and fortified, you start the last section of this day stage towards Gaschurn. The path leads you past the Outer Tafamuntmaisäß down into the center of Gaschurn.
