Crossing the Sagtalerspitzen
Challenging tour along the formidable Sagtaler Spitzen
Follow the trail down to the Hornalm and walk along the ridge to the Standkopf. A shorter route to reach the beginning of the ridge, saving a few metres elevation leads from the top station via the panorama path A 40 (southern approach).
After approx. 2 h walking time either follow the signs for the Moserbaumgartenalm and on to Inneralpbach or continue along the ridge. The first peak is the Standkopf at 2.239 m (2 h 30 min from the top station).
Please note! From this point on the trail is only suitable for experienced hikers. Sure-footedness and a head for heights is prerequisite!
The downhill trail is exposed and rope-secured! Continue along the rope-secured trail to the Tapenkopf at 2.244 m and along the ridge with several more rope-secured sections to the foot of the Gamskopf at 2.205 m. The Gamskopf is the last Sagtaler peak. Walking time from the Standkopf to the Sagtaler is an additional 1 h 30 min.
From the Krinnjoch folloow the sidns for "Inneralpbach, Farmkehralm" (1 h walking time).
Treat yourself to a well earned break at the Farmkehralm. Follow the "Jagdsteig" leading to Inneralpbach (approx. 1 h 30 min) and take the bus back to the Wiedersbergerhornbahn car park.
