This ski tour is a classic on the southern ridge between the Auerbergtal valley and the Einertal valley. The Ilmenspitze peak in the Ultental valley is located at the rear of the Auerbergtal valley. The ascent is through a relatively thick forest. Directly after the forest boundary, a magnificent high plateau emerges with the mountain hut Seefeldalm. The summit slope is the only really steep part of the Ilmenspitze. Nevertheless, this ski tour should only be undertaken during safe avalanche conditions. The view, especially directly towards the mighty Brenta range, is overwhelming. When the summit slope is covered in ‘firn’ snow, one can definitely enjoy powder snow on the northern slopes.
The Sesto ski touring trail teaches you everything you need to know for safe ski touring during a tour lasting just under two hours. The ski touring trail combines basic theoretical knowledge, for example about the correct behaviour in the event of an avalanche, with an almost six-kilometre tour on which around 540 metres in altitude have to be conquered. The ski touring trail, which is equipped with information boards, starts behind the Zin Fux restaurant and leads between trees and across meadows to the Rotwand. From there to the mountain station, the uphill kick turn is practised in open terrain before returning to the valley via the ski slope.

Starting right behind the Gasthof Bad Bergfall, follow the path Forstweg (Weg 32), first for a little while across two hairpin curves in direction west, then the path turns toward Sud, direction Langtal. From here you will reach soon a bridge that crosses the torrent on the right side. Now you can either go on on the left bank, or also cross the bridge and then turn right, so that you find yourself on the right bank. At an height of about 1700m, the ditch divides itself. Now you go up through the right side of the valley, across a declining forest. Later on the terrain will become flat again and you will be able to easily walk through a thinner forest and then reach the Jägershütte.
