Deep in the Senderstal valley in Stubai Alps, are the Kalkkögel - a group of rugged gray-blue limestone giants in the middle of rubble giants, deep crevices in the rock, mountain pine topping. The North Tyrol Dolomites. Impressive! There is a lake reflecting them, Salfeinersee. And here we go on the way to several more peaks above 2000m on a very scenical but technically easy ridge route. We first cross the bridge over the Sendersbach and first follow the steep road uphill, from which a steep climb branches off towards Salfains Alm / See. The view includes Inntal, Innsbruck, Nordkette, Axamer Litzum, Sellrainer Berge, Zugspitze but the view of the Kalkkögel beats everything!

From the lake the path leads upwards and partly along the ridge to the Grieskogel 2158m, which you can easily climb over its grassy flank. Soak up the panorama and get annoyed for not having more time. From here you could always take the Breitschwemmkogel 2260m, Angerbergkopf 2399m and the Schaflegerkopf 2405m along the ridge before descending into the valley. It is not yet the end of this tour. We follow the signs to Adolf-Pichler-Hütte and Sonntagsköpfl (2100m) which is beautifully located in front  of the mighty rock towers of the Kalkkögel. We probably stop over at Adolf Pichler hütte or in alternative at Kemater Alm for a well deserved drink.
