    This demanding tour leads along the sunny slope of the Rosskopf ridge at an altitude of 1900 to 2300 meters above the Ridnauntal, with a descent to the valley end. Recommended only in secure good weather. From the mountain station of the Rosskopf cable car (1850 m) on wide path No. 23 southwestwards, slightly rising, around the ridge jutting out to the south, above the Kuhalm (1897 m; managed) along to the Ochsenalm (1907 m, managed). The high path, now No. 23, leads under the Telfer Weissen to the mountain basin of the Seeberalm (open on weekends) with the Seebersee (2110 m). Past the southern slopes of the Wetterspitze, you reach the managed Prischeralm (2160 m). The descent runs partly steeply down path No. 27 to the hamlet Gesennen in Maiern. From there, you can return by public line bus to Sterzing. Mountain experience, surefootedness, and condition required!
