Directions

From the starting point of the route, Vermuntsee, the path leads us through the Maderer valley towards Hochmaderer (2,823 m). From the summit, simple climbing sections lead us down the west side. Surefootedness and a head for heights are absolutely required here. The path continues over gently sloping, rock-strewn hillsides and rough boulder terrain towards Tübinger Hütte. From there, the path leads us over the Mittelbergjoch and Vergaldner Joch (2,515 m), further towards Matschuner Joch, before reaching the center of Gargellen through the Vergaldatal.
