Hike: Sextner Stein

The starting point of this panoramic tour is the parking lot at the Fischleinbodenhütte in the Fischleintal valley, which is easily accessible by car or bus from Sexten or Moos (subject to a fee). From the parking lot, hike south along the wide valley path through flat terrain to the Talschlusshütte. After the hut, the path branches right into the Altensteintal valley (trail No. 102) and leads westward up to the Bödenalpe. Continue along the foot of the imposing Toblinger Knoten before the final ascent to the Sextnerstein begins. Once at the summit, an incomparable view opens up directly onto the north faces of the Three Peaks – majestic and within reach – flanked by the striking Paternkofel, which rises beside them like a stone tower. The return journey follows the same route. The duration given is for the outward and return journeys.
