From the Jungholz church we start towards the Jungholz ski lifts. After around 500 meters, we turn left onto the forest path in the direction of Vordere Sorgalpe. We also go towards Unterjoch. Past the small community, we stay right next to the main road B310 on the hiking trail until we reach the Unterjocher Spießerlifte. From there we walk straight ahead towards Steinpaßsattel directly on the signposted hiking trail. Once at the top, we continue towards the Hirschalpe. When we arrive at the hut, we are also at the the end of our tour.
