December 5, 2021,Waxriegelhaus über Helenenquelle

Starting point: Preiner Gscheid

From the parking lot of the Edelweißhütte we walked the red marked path (No. 829). In winter you should definitely take a toboggan with you, you can then whiz down almost the whole way. We then went over the Helenenquelle to the Waxriegelhaus, and finally over the Waxriegelsteig to the lookout point.
