Gr. Kinigat

From the Erschbaum parking lot, gravel road to the end of the valley. From there, follow the markings ascending the east side of the slope to the Tannerhütte (shelter, open). Continue eastwards onto a plateau, then via switchbacks to the east basin edge and in a long stretch to the saddle. Above the Standschützenhütte relatively flat to the state border with Italy and the Karnischer Höhenweg. Crossing this briefly over a gravel path upwards, eventually over a small rock step and then a climb secured with steel cables to the summit plateau and a short further stretch to the summit. Usually, the same route is taken back. However, if you turn off at the Standschützenhütte (which we did not do - it is small and usually overcrowded on cool or rainy days), a short descent is recommended and the route over the Weitenstall and Weitensattel back to the plateau of the ascent route. Then return via the ascent route to the car or parking lot.
