On this segment, you will proceed first from Gfrill to the bogland lakes of the "Weiss" and the "Schwarz." From there, the route continues to the Horn-Alm, the highest point of the segment. Hikers can stop here for refreshments and then continue downhill via the Ziss Saddle – not far from there, you can admire the stunning "huckete Stoan," a free-standing erratic boulder made of porphyry the size of a house – until you come to Altrei.
