Roadbook
After the parking lot in Losenheim at the chairlift, we walk about 500 m west and turn left onto the Weningersteig. At km 2.8, we meet the northern Grafensteig. We follow it to the Sitzstatt at 1376 m. Now steep uphill, the path later leads into the Novembergrat until the exit at about 1820 m. We leave the Damböckhaus to the left and follow the Klosterwappenweg first through the Ochsenboden to the summit of the Klosterwappen. From the summit, we go southeast past the Fischerhütte towards the entry of the Nandlgrat at 1900 m. At the same time, the ridge climbing begins towards the east. In the lower part, we reach the northern Grafensteig via the Hansengrat at about 1340 m, which we follow north to the Edelweisshütte. The valley station of the chairlift and the parking lot are already visible, and after about 1.5 km, we are back.
