  Starting from the Huber Kreuz parking lot (1,624m; indications), footpath no. 4 leads upwards through the high forest to the west, crossing the alpine road and leading to the Sisserkaser meadow (1,808m; fountain). The route then leads past the Neuhäuslhütte hut (1,849m). A little further above path no. 4 leads through a meadow to the south, and continues along the lower edge of a pasture to the crossing of two riverbeds excavated in the porphyry rock. At the point where it crosses path no. 3, the alpine path leads westward and up as a detour, in both directions, to the Platzer Alm mountain hut (2,064m; mountain inn). Trail no. 4 leads to the left through the mountain pine fields to a flat sloping terrace. After a series of short rocky steps, the route reaches the Rittner-Horn-Haus hut at Corno del Renon (2,259m; 360° panoramic view). Descend following footpath no. 1 to the Feltuner Hütte hut (2,065m; refreshments served) and to the Unterhornhaus hut (2,042m; refreshments served). Here, high mountain trail no. 15 leads along the upper edge of the timberline and slightly down to the northeast, around a mountain ridge and down through the forest to the Mountain Pine Distillery (1,858 m; here, rare mountain pine oil is manufactured). Follow the steeper road no. 3 south to the Merlalm pasture (1,607m). From here, forest trail no. 3B leads through the Kaserbachgraben ditch, circumventing the mountain ridge, before reaching the Huber Kreuz parking lot.
