The Sepp-Huber-Steig, secured with wire ropes, leads along a steep path, but directly over the Röllsattel to the Pühringerhütte. From the Almsee, hike along a forest road to the Sepp-Huber-Steig/Grieskarsteig fork. From there, follow the W214 Sepp-Huber-Steig to the foundation walls and continue along the secured path steeply up to the Röllsattel. Then over cart fields towards the south-west to the Geiernest, a striking rock face. There you meet the Ausseer Weg, which leads in a south-westerly direction to the Pühringer Hütte. You should allow approx. 4 hours for the 1,000 metres of ascent from the Almsee.
