Starting point: Hirschbichlalm, 1,822 m (Zillertaler Höhenstraße - High Road, toll road)
A short piece on the left to the West of the Hirschbichlalm along the street the marked way branches off the street after the huts. Follow the way over the wide pastures of the Krössbrunnalm. After about 10 minutes on the flat way you turn right at the fork - without crossing the brook and then follow the marked way through the basin to the Wedelhütte.
