Tour description
From the bus stop in Baad, a wide trail leads gently uphill along the Bärguntbach stream to the serviced Bärgunt Hut. From there, on the other side of the stream at the foot of the Widderstein, the route continues in a moderate downhill, with occasional short climbs, to the Widderstein Alpine pasture (Widdersteinalpe). Here, the approximately 5 km long, technically easy route rejoins the already familiar path and leads back to Baad.Best season
