Muttenkopf

First, from the parking lot, head northwest along a narrow asphalt road that leads to the last farms of the valley. After passing these, the asphalt gradually turns into gravel; shortly after, you reach a fork in the road. Here, turn left and follow the wide forest road No. 99A, which winds up the northern side of the valley. After several switchbacks and about 300 meters of elevation gain, you finally reach the Kastnerbergalm. Shortly behind the alpine pasture building, the path splits again; here, follow the cart track westwards. Shortly after, you reach a high pasture area beyond a small stream. The hiker is free here to either continue following the relatively flat cart track or take a short marked path No. 126 upwards and thus reach a more direct path uphill. Eventually, the paths rejoin, and the Muttenjoch is not far, which you reach after pleasant stretches over alpine pastures. The Muttenjoch marks the transition to the Gschnitztal, from where a path also joins accordingly. Now one last steep ascent along the ridge in a westerly direction remains before finally reaching the cross of the Muttenkopf and a magnificent view of the surrounding mountain beauties opens up.
