Turn-by-turn directions
The great difference in altitude can be comfortably overcome with the Schladminger Tauern cable car or Hauser Kaibling cable car & 8-seater chairlift Kaiblinggrat. From the top station of the cable car, the path leads along the Schafsinn-Rundweg to the Rossfeldsattel. From there follow the signs. In approx. 45 min. you reach the Bärfallspitze and enjoy the wonderful panoramic view into the valley. The descent is via trail no. 780 to the Kaiblingalm. From there it is a comfortable forest path back to the top station.
