The start is at the parking lot in the Winnebachtal near Terenten. First, follow the access road to the Astnerbergalm. Shortly before, turn left following the "Mühlenweg" sign. Follow this forest road until a fork with the sign "Gols" appears on the right. From here, a hiking trail leads upwards until you reach another forest road that goes directly to the meadow "Gols." Wooden loungers are prepared here for a rest :-).
Now you have three options: follow the lower forest road and turn right after about 50-100 meters along a beautiful forest path that leads directly to the Englalm.
Or follow the upper forest road, which also leads to the Englalm. From the Englalm, follow the path towards Eidechsspitze. At a barn, you can turn right if you want to hike towards Kompfossee and Steinspitze.
We followed the steep path upwards leading to the ridge. Attention: this path is not marked. Shortly before the summit of Steinspitze, you need to carefully choose the path upwards to avoid rocky terrain. Here, you will also need to use your hands at times.
The descent towards Kompfossee is also a good choice. A small path shows the way.
Upon reaching the lake, climb up to the saddle. Here the path branches towards Tiefrastenhütte and Eidechsspitze. If you still have enough energy, you can tackle the Eidechsspitze. From the saddle about 45 minutes. The ascent is secured with chains at 2-3 points; no problem for those used to hiking.
Descent then towards Tiefrastenhütte and from there towards Astnerbergalm and back to the parking lot.
