Even though this ridge traverse is hardly more difficult than T3 most of the time, it is a long day tour. Time estimations range from 11 to 25 hours, see here or here.

You will come across quite a couple of peaks on this route:

  • Hochhäderich (1565 m)
  • Falken (1561 m)
  • Eineguntkopf (1639 m)
  • Hohenfluhalpkopf (1636 m)
  • Seelekopf (1663 m)
  • Hochgrat (1832 m)
  • Gelchenwanger Kopf (1810 m)
  • Rindalphorn (1822 m)
  • Gündleskopf (1748 m)
  • Buralpkopf (1772 m)
  • Sedererstuiben (1737 m)
  • Stuiben (1749 m)
  • Steineberg (1660 m)
  • Bärenköpfle (1463 m)
  • Mittagberg (1451 m)


Apart from the Staufner Haus pretty much at the beginning there is no hut on the way so make sure to pack enough food and water.

You can shorten the route by beginning at the Staufner Haus and taking the cable car up (Hochgratbahn) or/and the chair lift down (Mittagbahn).
