Bergheimat (Leppner Alm) - Dachskofel (via Unteralmhütte)

Access to starting point:
Drive to Irschen (Austria). Once in Irschen follow the signs for Leppner Alm. The steep and picturesque road passes numerous houses in the steep terrain. The road eventually leads you through the forest. Expect a macadam road in its final kilometers. There is a parking at the destination and the Bergheimat (Leppner Alm) in the near vicinity.

Path description:
Starting from the parking place, follow the macadam road for a few meters, pass the information tables and cross the small bridge. Immediately after the bridge, head left to the steep trail passing the signs. After few minutes, our trail joins the road where signs direct us left. A few houses appear after a short stroll. Immediately after mind the signs and turn right to a trail. The trail gets steeper and runs through the forest. After a while it reaches mountain pastures and soon after the hut it branches off to the right (mind the signs). The trail then slowly ascends until it merges with the cart track. Turn left before the cart track barrier. In the continuation, the trail traverses several mountain springs and numerous mountain pastures. Eventually, the next signs are reached, where the trail continues to the right (if you turn left after a one-minute-walk you will reach the hut Unteralmhütte).
In the continuation, enjoy the trail which opens up while it slowly ascends. The trail crosses a mountain spring and then it reaches a spot with cozy recliners. After 45 minutes of walk (from last signs by the Unteralmhütte) the trail joins with the one from Ochsnerhütte. Continue left and after 30 minutes of a slightly steeper trail turn left (right is Scharnik). After 15 minutes of walk you will reach the top.
