From the exit of the Muggengratbahn, follow ski slope no. 10 "Muggengrat Täli" for about 50m and then enter the steep slope, which after about 100m elevation leads directly to the traverse. Then follow the south-facing traverse until you reach the weather station at Guggis Sattel. If you do not go to the saddle but turn right about 50m before, you come to another variant, the Flexenmähder.
Once at the saddle, you have a magnificent view down to Zürs. After a short steeper drop, you find yourself in the wide spacious slopes that lead directly down to Zürs. The last part of the stage can be skied slightly south to return to the ski run in moderate terrain or (as in the GPX track) a bit more sporty near the avalanche barriers.
