From the car park at the Zanseralm mountain hut (1,680 m) in the Villnösstal Valley, follow the signs to the Zans Nature Trail (Naturerlebnispfad Zans in German) past the Gasthof Sass Rigais Inn (1,689 m) and the Zanser Schwaige mountain hut. Ascend trail no. 32 through a gentle forest track to the right bank of the Tschantschenonbach torrent. At the crossing take the trail to the Gampenalm mountain hut and take a right turn. Just past the bridge turn left over the Tschantschenonbach and follow the sign to the Adolf-Munkel-Weg Trail no. 35. Established in 1905, the hiking trail takes its name from the founder and chairman of the Dresden Section of the German and Austrian Alpine Association. 

After passing the Adolf-Munkel memorial, the trail bears right to the Gschnagenhardtalm and Geisleralm mountain huts. Descend down through scenic pastures to the Gschnagenhardtalm (2,006 m) and to the Geisleralm (1,996 m). 

To return, follow trail no. 36 to Duslerhütte – Zans below the Geisleralm playground. The wide track leads gently downhill to the Dusleralm (1,782 m) past a fork to the right towards Zans. Shortly after, the trail continues along an almost flat forest path that leads back to the car park in Zans.

The spectacular Adolf-Munkelweg Trail in the Puez-Geisler Nature Park runs beneath the north face of the majestic Geisler Group at the closed end of the Villnösstal Valley. Passing through a stone pine forest and crossing Alpine rose fields, the trail leads to welcoming mountain huts ideal for a rest stop.

Parking in Zannes, Funes, at the entrance to the Puez-Odle Nature Park.
