Route: From the car park first walk further along the road in the direction of Oberradein. At the fork go right up to Inn Nigglhof. From there take footpath Nr.7. When you reach the forest road, follow it upwards and after a short time turn right on to footpath B – Blauweg – and follow it as far as the Alpine hut Gurndin. From here the ascent of the Weisshorn starts on footpath H. There is a magnificent all-round view from the summit. Return via the lovely Zirmersteig, signposted W, first along the upper edge of the alpine meadows Lahner below the Weisshorn, then via the chalk pits of the Bletterbach back to Radein.
Special tip: The legend of the giant Grimm who lived between the Weisshorn and the Schwarzhorn is depicted in five paintings by the famous South Tyrolean artist, Ignaz Stolz, in the large dining room of the Hotel Zirmer in Radein.
