Wir haben heute den beschriebenen Weg mit Mittagspause auf der Hochalm gemacht und danach zum Kreuzjoch und zum See gelaufen. Von hat man eine wunderschöne a Aussicht. Vom Kreuzjoch sind wir den Weg 24 gelaufen, der ein wunderschöner Höhenwanderweg ist. Siehe Foto. Leider war der Abstieg von der 24 sehr steil mit viel Schotter und sehr anstrengend.
