Hike: Sextner Stein

The starting point for this panoramic tour is the car park at the Fischleinbodenhütte in the Fischleintal valley, which can be easily reached by car or bus from Sexten or Moos (subject to a fee). From the car park, hike southwards along the wide valley path through flat terrain to the Talschlusshütte hut. After the hut, the trail branches off to the right into the Altensteintal valley (trail no. 102) and leads westward up to the Bödenalpe. Continue along the foot of the imposing Toblinger Knoten before beginning the final ascent to the Sextnerstein. Once you reach the summit, you are rewarded with an incomparable view of the north faces of the Three Peaks – majestic and close enough to touch – flanked by the striking Paternkofel, which rises like a stone tower next to them. The return route follows the same path.
