Tour information

The starting point of this tour is the parking lot at the Tiefentalalm in Langer Grund. From there, you head into the valley to the Oberkaralm (No. 77). Then you hike somewhat steeper to the Öfeleralm, which lies at 1,988 meters. The path continues uphill to the summit of the Torhelm (2,494 meters). The descent is via the same path.
Alternatively, you can also extend the way back via the Regenfeldrunde. To do this, turn off at the Öfeleralm onto the signposted trail 77/1. Passing small mountain lakes you hike to the Regenfeldalm and Ochsenschlagniederalm. From there you return to the Tiefentalalm via the forest path. This extension extends the hike by about 2h 15min and 7 km.

There are no refreshment stops on the tour. Therefore, we strongly recommend to take enough food and drink with you.
