Explanation
From there follow the path slightly downhill to the Gurgler Alm (8000 year old cultural landscape) and further to the Langtalereck hut.
From the Langtalereck hut, follow the signs "Klettersteig Schwärzenkamm-Hochwildehaus" south into the Langtal valley. Turn right to a green iron bridge and then up the Hochwildeweg, past the junction to the via ferrata and steeper over partially secured path passages around the northern foothills of the Schwärzenkamm into the wide basin of Gurgler Ferner. Continue on a moraine ridge south to the 'Steinerner Tisch' and at the end slightly uphill to the east to the Hochwildehaus.
Due to irreparable damage, the Hochwildehaus will remain closed until further notice.
