Crossing this and turning right, the ascent leads after 20 m to the left onto a forest path to the farms "Pointner", "Unterlehner" (the last peasant wax farmer in Austria), "Leonhard" to the Forsthaus "Hinteredt". Descent to the "Windschopf" via the forest road to "Schneiderlehner" and "Wolflehner" up to the Hasenebene.
