    Roadbook

    • The journey begins at the valley station in Vierschach/Helm. Please board the cable car here, as it immediately takes you to the highest point of the route at 2,200 m.
    • There, you will be greeted by the first rays of sunlight of the day. With a coffee, you can enjoy the breathtaking view of the surrounding mountains a little longer before starting the first and sunniest descent to the Stiergarten cable car.
    • The Stiergarten cable car takes you up to Stiergarten, where bulls once spent their summer retreat. Now take the Drei Zinnen slope to the Signaue valley station, from where you reach the Rotwand on the other side of the village of Sexten. There, our reindeer and the giant snowman family will welcome you.
    • This is the turning point of the route: from here you can return to the starting point via the route taken (Signaue - Stiergarten - (Sexten -) Helm - Vierschach valley station)
