Roadbook
Take the transfer buses from Sport Ossi to the Aschau/Wimm parking lot. From here the hike begins across alpine pasture land first to Anderl's Hut and then further over the Kreuzein high pasture to Roßwies. Enjoy the magnificent view of Zireiner Lake and the impressive Rofan Mountains.
After a short descent to Zireiner Lake, you hike along the southern side of the lake and ascend again on the west side. At the next junction, the trail continues to the Zireiner Alm and then further downwards and briefly upwards again to the Bayreuther Hut/Mountain Alm.
After a long rest, the path leads down to Weiderost, where you follow the signposted "valley station" and continue downhill to the starting point - the former Sonnwendjoch cable car parking lot.
