Alpine Tour to the Alplerspitze Mountain (2,748 m)

At the parking lot on the 6th bend on the way to the village of Prantach/Prantago, head (northeast) to the start of the Fartleistal valley then turn south-east before arriving at some mountain farms. The wide mountain path leading further into the valley leads to the Fartleiseralm mou8ntain pasture. Proceed in an easterly direction across a series of hairpin bends up a steep slope as far as the Hühnerspielalm mountain hut. Cross over the grassy slope (eastwards) and then cross over a steep scree and a rocky section up a chimney up to the ridge. Turn right (southwards) along the ridge and then bear left along a narrow path (with secured safety cables) to reach the Alplerspitze summit.
