We start our tour in Fallenstein just before Gußwerk and hike uphill along scenic forest roads and paths to Tonionalm where we take a short break. From here, we follow a path past the Knochenschacht to the Toniongipfel (1699 m), the highest point of our hike. After a cozy break with a beautiful view, we continue towards Niederalpl, passing Sonntagskogel and several shafts and caves until we reach Hochschnäbltörl. From here, we follow an unmarked path through a charming landscape over Schneekogel until we meet the marked hiking trail again in front of Ochsenbodenalm. We finally reach the mountain pass at Niederalpl via Weißalm and Wetterinalm.
