The tour starts in Moos, right next to the Schäfer store. From there, follow Helmweg uphill, past the houses of Palmstatt until you cross a small bridge on the right side of the road. There, follow the signs for trail no. 1, cross the slope and walk along the fence up to the Kristlerhöfe and on to the Helmhanghütte. From here, keep to the right along the ski slope and continue past the hut to the Egge. Now follow trail no. 13, which is flat at first but then becomes increasingly steep. The trail leads through sparse forest and open terrain to the Klammbachalm/malga Klammbach (1,944 m) – a managed alpine pasture, ideal for a rest with a view. From the alpine pasture, the terrain becomes more open: over the ridge, continue climbing north on trail no. 133 until you reach a saddle at 2,418 m. From here, a wide, easily accessible ridge leads without difficulty to the summit of the Hornischeck (2,550 m). Once at the summit, an impressive panorama of the surrounding mountains of the Sesto Dolomites opens up – a real highlight of this tour. The return route is either via the same path back to Moos, or alternatively to the Helmjet Sexten cable car station or the Drei Zinnen cable car, and thus comfortably back down to the valley. Tip: The Drei Zinnen cable car can be used in advance to save a few meters of altitude – ideal for those who want to experience the summit without a long climb.

Easy alpine tour with a spectacular view of the Dolomites of Sesto.
