Start: Graun at Lake Resia.
Route: the first kilometer climbs steeply to gain elevation. After that, the trail flattens out. On varied trails and forest roads, the route continues with a moderate ascent into the valley on the southern side of the Langtauferer Valley. Short, gentle downhill sections provide regular recovery.
Finish: the idyllic valley-end village of Melag with views of the mighty glaciers of Weißkugel.
