The Tour
Short trail from Sonnblick to the Gampe Alm junction technically demanding
The super flowy trail starts on a hillside ridge, where you only have to watch out for cows and hikers. At the end, there is a technically challenging section with tight hairpin turns, some of which have rain channels dug into them.
At the end of the trail you follow a short transfer route towards Kreuzweg Trail (6015) which takes you down to the valley floor safely.
