Description

Ascent:

From the Wegscheid hiking starting point, follow trail 826 always in the direction of Treffauer and Tuxeck. Passing the Wegscheid alpine pastures and the Wilden-Kaiser-Steig trail, the trail leads through cool forest and across alpine meadows to the waterfall. Continue on trail 826 becoming steeper and steeper until you reach the Schneekar cirque. At the beginning of the cirque, the trail branches off to the right onto the Treffauer. Climb over rock steps and two short rope belays to the summit of the Treffauer (2,304 m). During the ascent there are wonderful views of the Hintersteiner See Lake.
