Turn-by-turn directions

Starting from the Timmelsbrücke bridge, take the broad path to the Timmelsalm Alpine pasture. Then continue along the right bank of the Passer river. After coming to the end of the Unterkrumpwasser water catchment area, turn left just before reaching a shepherd's hut. Bear left, while passing a large rock that juts out across the bends. Follow the trail up the long slope as it winds its way up the ridge to the summit of the Schwarzwandscharte.

Descent: Follow the same route back down into the valley.
