Schießeck

Open
This is a family-friendly tour, the climb is moderate, so you can turn aroung at any time.
On this hike you are on large alpine pastures and hacve a magnificent panoramic view, as well as magnificent views of all the surrounding peaks. The ascent is mostly on free and open terrain. The mostly treeless slopes, as well as a long summit slope make it seem never to reach the top.

This is therefore an easy hike for young and old.
