Skiing through Sellrain

Stage 1: Praxmar (1687 m) – across the Schefalm into the Kamplloch – over the XXL slopes to the ski depot and on foot (one section secured with a chain) to the Zischgeles (3005 m) – with good conditions, descent directly from the summit, otherwise traverse from the ski depot to the ridge that bounds the Sattelloch on the west side (approx. 2850 m) – descent through the Wilde Karl, where from about 2600 meters altitude you roughly follow the summer path – flat in the valley floor to the Hint. Gleirschalm (2188 m) and ascent to the Pforzheimer Hut (2308 m).

Stage 2: Ascent through the Roßkar to the Samerschlag (2831 m) – descent into the Gleirschtal – ascent to the Zischgenscharte, the last meters very steep – detour on a partly secured path to the Schöntalspitze (3008 m) – from the Zischgenscharte very steep descent southward, then swinging widely southwest to the Westfalenhaus (2273 m).

Stage 3: With some altitude loss into the Längental – at around 2400 meters you turn right (southwest) and finally ascend through the steep cirque with the remnants of the Grüne Tatzen glacier to the Seeblaskogel (3224 m, the last meters possibly on foot, caution: cornices!) – short descent, then traverse to P.3102 – through a south-facing cirque to the Bachfallen glacier – Winnebachsee Hut (2362 m).

Stage 4: Flat into the Winnebach valley – over beautiful slopes to beneath the Zwieselbachjoch – over the Grießkogel glacier to the Breiten Grießkogel (3287 m) – descent to the Zwieselbachjoch (2870 m, short ascent) – through the long Zwieselbach valley to the Schweinfurter Hut (2034 m).

Stage 5: Partly steep ascent to the wide meadows of the Zwieselbachalm – through the Wide cirque to the Kraspesspitze (2953 m) – from the saddle (2910 m) southeast of the summit steeply northeast into the Wilde Kar – through the cirque into a basin and here heading north-facing, but rather towards the Kälberkar (there are drop-offs in the fall line) into the basin above the Zwing – through the Kraspes valley to Haggen (1650 m) – by bus or hitchhiking via Gries im Sellrain back to Praxmar.
