2-Summit Tour in Schwendberg

Description

Guided hike in the Zillertal Alps Nature Park to the Rastkogelhütte.

Mountain ridge hike from Melchboden into the Tux Alps - guided hiking tour with the Zillertal alps nature park

From Melchboden bus stop, we quickly leave the hustle and bustle of the high road behind us and reach the Arbiskopf (2,133 m) after only a short while. An almost Scandinavian-like landscape stretches out ahead of us, which we can admire from the second summit, the Rauenkopf (2,268 m). The surrounding meadows are strewn with hollows, wetlands and alpine flowers and are used as high alpine grazing pastures for cattle in summer. Our easy walk along the mountain ridge finally ends when we turn left shortly before the ascent to Kreuzjoch and soon reach the Rastkogelhütte (2,117 m). After enjoying some refreshments, we continue on to Sidanalm and walk down to Sportalm, where we will catch the bus back down to the valley.
