Stages in source order

  1. Diedamskopf station via Schwarzwasserhütte to Schoppernau

    hiking · 17.39 km · publisher difficulty S (Schwierigkeit 75/100)

    Check current path access, weather, snow and required equipment before travel. Original seasonal and open-status labels do not confirm current conditions. This is a mapped reference; automatic navigation remains held. Source read 2026-11-02.

    The whole original station-to-valley walk is retained, including its recorded bends and valley approach. Arrange access to the upper station separately. Despite the original circular-route flag, the supplied walk has different start and finish positions; this reference adds no cable-car ride, summit visit or walking connector. Source read 2026-11-02.

    The publisher gives 17.24 km, 396 m ascent and 1575 m descent, at 835-2030 m. This complete mapped reference measures 17.39 km, 378 m ascent and 1558 m descent, with sampled heights 835-2021 m. Allow for the measured climb; the original publisher difficulty remains unchanged. Source read 2026-11-02.

    At the source check on 2 November 2026, the responsible visitor page reported Schwarzwasserhütte closed for rebuilding until spring 2027; the mapped hut record says summer 2027. The reference passes outside the hut. Check the current closure and construction arrangements before travel; food, accommodation, shelter and access through the work area remain unqualified. Source read 2026-11-02.

    The walk crosses the actual named Althornbachalpe pasture. Its farm building is about 124 m from the recorded path; this reference includes no refreshment visit or extra spur. It passes the Neuhornbach Alpe building, where the publisher describes seasonal staffing. Food and current opening hours still need a separate check. Source read 2026-11-02.

    The original publisher rates this walk hard (S, 75/100), with very high fitness demands and a six-hour reference time, for June–October. Expect mountain paths, stream crossings, narrow wooden bridges and a long descent, followed by shared valley roads with gaps in pavements. Check snow, crossings, footwear, equipment and wildlife protection restrictions for your dates. Source read 2026-11-02.

    The starting station steps and valley roads do not establish wheelchair or family suitability. The outdoor course grants no building entry, private-driveway or parking rights. Check cable-car and bus operation separately. Current conditions, automatic navigation and the reverse direction remain unqualified. Source read 2026-11-02.

    The linked original visitor description gives the detailed source route context. Check current local path conditions, required transport and facility opening before travel; this informational reference supplies no automatic navigation clearance. Source read 2026-11-02.

    Glacier assessment unknown. Automatic planning and navigation exports remain held.
