The hike begins at the small car park beside the barrier gate at the entrance to the Valtigltal valley. From here, the route initially follows trail no. 26 through the valley, continuing slightly beyond the Valtiglalm mountain hut. The trail then branches off to the left onto route no. 23, which leads to Fuchssee lake, where the viewing platform is located.
The opening hours of mountain and alpine huts can be found here.
