Let´s go this Saturday for a journey to Tannheimertal. 

We start from Grän and we go up till we catch the GEO-Path where you will learn all kinds of interesting facts about the origin of the mountains till the Füssner Jöchle.

The path is always well signposted and reaches the first lookout point at Reintaler Jöchle, from here you have the first, spectacular view of the steep north faces of the famous Tannheimer mountain peaks Gehrenspitze, Köllenspitze, Gimpel and Rote Flüh. The partly very rooty hiking trail leads from the Reintaler Jöchle a short distance downhill to the Otto-Mayer-Hütte - Füssener Hütte junction. Always rising slightly, the path now crosses the mountain pine-covered southern slopes of the Hahnenkopf. Shortly afterwards you reach the Vilser Scharte. We follow the hiking trail through the southern slopes of the Kleine Schlicke to the fork in the Große Schlicke - Otto-Mayer-Hütte. From here the path is much steeper through the rocky summit meadows of the Große Schlicke. The summit of the Große Schlicke is reached after about an hour and a half. The effort to climb is rewarded with an overwhelming view,

Große Schlicke is the highest point of a west – east running ridge, starting at Füssener Jöchl above Tannheimer valley and ending north of Reutte and Pflach / Lech valley. To the south Große Schlicke towers over the beautiful mountain valley of Saba creek (Raintal) to the north there is the Hundsarschtal  and the adjacent Vilser Kegel. You will see Forgenseeand the impressing northern rock walls of the Tannheimer main ridge and it is a great hike in late autumn when the sun still heats up the south slopes.
