With a route length of 30 km, this route is the longest of the entire circular hiking trail. The first 8 km are along the valley floor, passing farms, pastures, and alpine meadows. A highlight here is the Griessener Moor and also "The Covered Sheep", which is meant to symbolize the harmony between humans and nature/animals. Then you pass the magnesite factory and branch off in Hochfilzen to the biathlon center in the military training area. Make sure to check in advance whether the training area is closed due to shooting exercises. Through beautiful forests and alpine meadows, you reach the Römersattel. Half of the route is completed, and there are no more ascents to manage. Through the impressive Vorderkaserklamm, the Vorderkaser snack station is reached. A bit further downhill, the natural bathing area invites you to cool off on hot days. The route continues along the valley floor via St. Martin to the stage destination at Lofer.
