The trail starts at the Kinigerhöfe (1375 m) above Sexten and initially leads to Moos / "Palmstatt" (trail no. 1). Passing the mountain station of the Bruggerlift ski lift, a narrow path runs along the edge of the forest until it meets the forest road to the Sexten alpine pastures. Follow this for only a short distance before turning right onto the first forest path no. 1 towards Signaue. At the parking lot near the Hennstoll restaurant (1450 m), turn right at the barrier towards Gilte and continue to Hotel Rainer. From there, trail no. 1 leads past the playground to the valley station of the Rotwand cable car. Passing the Mühlenhof, follow trail no. 102 into the Fischleintal valley for a short stretch, but then turn right uphill at the signpost near the dry toilet to reach the upper meadow path (no. 1). This beautiful path runs out of the valley in a westerly direction to the historic Haideck fortress (1413 m). From there, the path continues with a slight descent until a narrow forest path branches off to the left in a sharp right-hand curve. This leads further down the valley to the Waldheimlift. Continue along the cycle path towards Innichen, following the signs for hiking trail 105A until shortly before the petrol station. There, cross the pedestrian crossing and follow the signposts leading back to Sexten through meadows and forests. Passing the Lahnerhöfe, follow the paved road back to the village centre and, after a short uphill section, reach the Kinigerhöfe once again, the starting point of this circular route.
From station no. 3 ‘Spitzköfele’ in the direction of station no. 4, the path is closed. The path that runs through the forest is closed. Alternatively, you can descend from station no. 3 to ‘Palmstatt’ and from here you can continue along the road towards Berggasthaus Froneben. At the first bend you will find the entrance to the Sexten circular trail no. 1.
Line 446, bus stop Sexten Helm; alternatively, during the high season, also line 440.
Coming from the Pustertal valley, turn into the Sexten valley in Innichen. If arriving from the Kreuzberg pass, follow the main road until you reach Sexten. The start is located at the Haus der Berge, Dolomitenstraße 45A.
