Directions

The route starts at the mountain station of the Golmerbahn and leads on a well-marked path into the Außergolm area. You reach the Alpengasthof Rellstal via the Platzisalpe, where you can stop for a break. The trail continues uphill via the forest road and some shortcuts to the Heinrich Hueter Hut, which is located at the foot of the Zimba. The ascent continues over the Gipsköpfle up to the Lünerkrinne. There you have a great view of the Lünersee, the Schesaplana, and you can enjoy the last longing glances into the Montafon before turning your back on the Montafon. From the Lünerkrinne, you can reach the mountain station of the Lünerseebahn in about 30 minutes.
