Forecast

We are under the influence of a strong high pressure area and a warm, dry southerly airflow: These are ideal weather conditions which we would want to last as long as possible! Today Monday, they will in any case! The weather will remain dry and sunny.

Tendency

Autumn will still be at its best during the next few days! We will see blue skies and warm temperatures at all altitudes.

From the car park, we hike across the bridge over the Senderbach stream and then follow the forest road for a short distance. A few metres after the first left-hand bend, we turn right to follow the shortcut along a wide, cleared path through the trees, crossing the road once more and continuing up to the private Salfains Alm mountain hut (1,738 m). From the hut, we hike diagonally uphill to a small wooden cross, before continuing west through a small bowl and then out to the right onto the wide plateau that is home to the romantic Schönangerl/Salfainssee biotope and the Salfains hill (2,000 m). If you hike north for about 300 m from there, you will come to a small summit cross located just below the hill with magnificent views of the Inn Valley.


Descent: hike back along the ascent route as described above or take the route via the Kemater Alm mountain hut, where you can stop for a break and a bite to eat.
