in the HollenzePhoto: Peter Innerbichler, AVS Sektion Ahrntal
A scenic highlight is the descent to the Oberlangebene in the furthest Sundergrund with its puddles and meanders. From there, there is a short, strenuous ascent to the Hörndlejoch, 2553 m, and then down through the Hollenze to the starting point.

Safety information
The paths are generally well to very well marked, but in fog or poor visibility, especially near the passes, you have to be careful! It's easy to lose the path quickly and suddenly find yourself in "nothingness".Tips and suggestions
Website of Hollenzalm: www.unterberghof.netRoadbook
Just after the Gruberalm (approx. 1670 m), a narrow path leads steeply into the forest on the left (again Steinerbach signpost). After several switchbacks and a long, almost level traverse through the mountain forest, you reach the "Klammerhüttl" (approx. 1850 m) at the Steinerbach. Via a forestry road, you cross with gentle ups and downs the trench of the Walcherbach to the Fiechtenberghütte (approx. 1920 m). Now path No. 17A turns northwards towards the alpine hut “Kapöl” at 2142 m. The old military road leads with numerous switchbacks over the Walcherebene up to the Napfjoch (2635 m). After a rest at the pass, it continues northwards. The path passes numerous puddles and marshy hollows down to the path that leads up from the Sundergrund. At a signpost, the path now leads again southwards into the Oberlangebene. The Oberlangebene invites you to rest with its small lakes and puddles before the ascent to the Hörndlejoch begins. The path passes a small stone-built wayside shrine called the “Marienbildl” and then the strenuous ascent to the pass (2553 m) begins. Although partly deteriorated, the path is well marked.
From the pass, path No. 17 leads down to the Hollenze into the Ahrntal. First, it is a steep mountain path that leads down to the avalanche dams, then a stony former forestry road begins, which with three switchbacks leads to the Hollenzalm (1831 m). The Hollenzalm invites you to stop for a snack.
On forestry and forest roads (No. 17), you now return to St. Jakob, the starting point.

Directions
From Bruneck to the Ahrntal up to the church in St. JakobParking
There are parking spaces at the church of St. Jakob.You can also drive a bit further up the farm access road to the Bergerhöfe, where there is a small parking lot at the beginning of the forest road. This shortens the hike by about 1.5 hours (1 hour going up and half an hour going down). However, this parking lot is very limited, so an early start is advisable to secure a spot.
