Tour 20 Looking beyond the borders

From the top station of the funicular (1374 m) on the Mendel, walk towards Mendelstraße. Keep right there and walk along it for a short distance. After the beer garden, take path 500 uphill towards Penegal. The small road turns into a hiking trail. You cross the road twice and soon afterwards have the option of walking out to the right to the summit cross. You can return to the path or continue along the panoramic path above the rock faces. You soon reach the Hotel Penegal (refreshments available, 1715 m), past which you continue straight on until you reach path 508 (Regole di Malosco), which branches off to the left. Take a pleasant walk downhill across larch meadows, past the Malosco-Alm (refreshments available) to the Regole. Even before the refreshment stops at the Regole, path 2 turns off to the left. Initially through sparse larch forest and then through spruce forest. You cross forest paths, pay attention to the markings, there is another ascent and you finally reach the road that leads to the Penegal. Shortly before this, a hiking trail turns off to the right and you reach the Grandhotel on the Mendel Pass and the Mendelstraße and return to the Mendelbahn mountain station.
