from center
The hike to the Hochgrubbachspitze is a varied mountain tour for experienced hikers. The route takes you past waterfalls, alpine pastures and a mountain lake. From the summit, you can enjoy extensive views of the surrounding mountains.
Itinerary

You start at the parking lot in the Winnebachtal valley and follow the gently ascending trail no. 23 to the Astnerbergalm. From here, the trail becomes steeper. At the waterfall, a flatter section follows before another ascent leads to the Tiefrastenhütte and Tiefrastensee.

From there, continue uphill along trail no. 24 towards Hochsägescharte. The route then turns left and follows trail no. 24, which leads over easy climbing sections to the summit of Hochgrubbachspitze at 2,811 metres. The summit offers sweeping panoramic views.

The descent follows the same route via the Tiefrastenhütte and Astnerbergalm back to the parking lot in the Winnebachtal valley, the finishing point of the tour.
