The Grand Tour, which places the highest demands on fitness and technique.
From Lackenhof, the trail leads over the Riffelsattel into Langau. Via the Herrenalm (temporarily closed), the trail leads up to the mighty Dürrenstein, the highest point of the route. Following the ridge, you cross Sonnstein, Hochkirch, Gamskogel and Schwarzkogel and reach the "Göstling-Hochkar" trail running area at Ringkogel. From here, the route leads via the Schwarzalmhütte to the Hochkar.
