The route is moderately steep from the start (approx. 11%) via Hygna to the Kerschbaum Saddle. The panorama is incredible, and the Kerschbaum farm with its flower laden splendour is also a unique scene to take a photo. The trail then descends via Hart im Zillertal to Bruck. From St. Gertraudi, give your thigh muscles a challenge on the 20% incline via the Keilgasse.
