Route description:
At the end of the parking lot, we turn left and cross the Teigitsch river over a bridge, then ascend to the nearby church, where we turn right. We continue following the signs for guesthouse Pongratzwirt, mountain hut Saureishütte and the peak Seinerkreuz, walking along trail no. 540. The compact part of the settlement soon ends and the path ahead leads us along an ascending asphalt road which the marked trail crosses several times; we follow the blazes and signs for Pongratzwirt. In the final section of the ascent to guesthouse Pongratzwirt, we climb over a panoramic pasture, then pass mountain direction signposts and arrive at the aforementioned guesthouse.
