Route Description


From the Gaschney (park), walk to the startpoint of the chairlift to Little Hohneck (disused lift).
Take the track on the left side and conturn the south face of the little Hohneck. You reach higher the farm-inn of Schiessroth. Continue in NW direction on the path to Schaeffertal.
From the Schaeffertal collar, climb left upright (GR 5) to the summit of the Hohneck (1,5 hours from the Gaschney)
