Parking facility:

P6 "Maxhütte

Directions:

From the paid parking area Maxhütte up the road and then right along the bee trail to the junction Nördlinger Hütte. Follow the panoramic path, then turn left on the narrow Stieglweg and the Reitherspitzsteig up to the Nördlinger Hütte (alpine hut), where you can enjoy a magnificent view.

There are 2 variants for the way back:

  • Variant 1 - as shown in the map: From the Nördlinger hut further on the Reither Spitze (2,374m)  to the Härmelekopf (only for experienced hiker,  sure-footed and free from giddiness, it goes over a ladder), further to the Reitherjoch Alm and back to the Maxhütten parking lot.

  • Variant 2: The same way back to the Nördlinger hut and directly in front of the hut left down to the Reitherjoch Alm and further back to the Maxhütten parking lot. A trail for experienced hikers who are free from giddiness.
