Author’s recommendation
Stopover in Turnau or at the Alpine guesthouse Turnauer Alm 1,385m (located somewhat off the usual ascent-descent route)
Derived from the technical difficulty and the stamina requirements.

Depending on avalanche danger, stay on the faint ridge above 1,400m, also for the descent! The slopes towards the Alpine guesthouse southwest are significantly steeper.
Tips and suggestions
Roadbook
From the Greith parking lot along the forest road towards Turnauer Alm up to the forest boundary at about 1,380m. Since this route is a well-known ski tour, shortcuts through the forest are often tracked. The forest road is quite suitable for chatting in a group. From the forest boundary, past the hunting hut heading north along the faint ridge, depending on avalanche danger either on the open areas or keeping to the ridge up to the summit. Descent as ascent. Depending on snow conditions, the shortcuts in the forest road are also suitable for descent.
