September 18, 2021,Gipfel Gedrechter von der Kaltenbacher Hütte an der Zillertaler Höhenstraße
From the Kaltenbacher Hütte (parking lot) on a direct, sometimes a little steeper path to the summit of the Gedrecht. On the way back we take the path on the other side over alpine meadows in the direction of Hochalm and from here on the supply path back to the starting point.

After some time in the huge playground, we started the tour at the Kaltenbacher Ski Hut, which is located on the panoramic Zillertaler Höhenstraße. It goes along beautiful paths up the mountain to the Arbiskopf. At the summit cross we were able to enjoy the wonderful view again. Then came what was probably the most exciting part of the trail …

A long-held wish has come true - a short vacation with the now grown-up kids 👧🧒👦 in the mountains ⛰️.
Today we went on beautiful hiking trails and paths, but also partially on forest paths, to the 2217 m high Gedrechter summit with a 360 degree panoramic view. Easy to walk with a rewarding view. Approach via the Zillertaler Höhenstrasse …

Summit climbers in marmot country

That was the name of our hike 🥾🥾yesterday. We wanted to climb a summit cross before heading home.

So we took the Zillertal high road with an unbelievably great view up to marmot country and from there climbed up to the "Gedrechter". The Gedrechter is a 2,217 meter high mountain in the Tux Alps.

Nice tour. Exciting paths, great views, playground at the end.

Thanks for the tip @atbest27
