Exact in that order, I purposely choose that Trailhead and added a few more Peaks to have a longer Hike with more Elevation gain for Training Purpose to get fit for the Summer. Got an early start at Griesner Alm 988 m 3241 ft. And made my way up the washed out Trail to Stripsenjochhaus 1577 m 5173 ft. Was still very early when I arrived and quiet. A half an hour later I was already at Stripsenkopf 1807 m 5927 ft. Which I also had to myself. Took a little Break before descending down the Panoramic Trail which was not Fun at all, being Steep, Wet, and Muddy, eventually I made it to down safely and up to Ropanzen 1572 m 5156 ft. In wet Grass. A small but pretty Summit Cross Mark the Summit. Hochalm 1403 m 4602 ft. Was already visible for a longer time but now it was time to loose more elevation and pass by the Alm where I refilled my Water Bottle, Pretty humid already today. For the first time I see a Trail-marker for Pyramidenspitze 1997 m 6550 ft. and Vordere Kesselschneid 2001 m 6563 ft. Which I followed and traversed below the Ridgeline which was a marked Trail but slow and not pleasant with many roots. Wet and muddy and constantly going up and down, Slow going to say the least. Eventually it ended and I could follow a Scree Trail to Pyramidenspitze which is marked with a summit Cross and Register Even though it is only a provisional Peak and not the Highpoint with Prominence. Took a few Pictures and made my way over to the Highpoint at Vordere Kesselschneid which to my surprise has no Cross or Register, just a Simple Cairn and a Wooden Blank with the Peak-name written on it. What a Shame. My original Plan was to continue along the Ridgeline all the way to Roßkaiser 1978 m 6488 ft. Before descending down to Hochalm, Didn’t like the steep traverse on wet Grass and therefore returning my ascent path which again was not great but better than running into trouble or worse along the Ridgeline. The return was the same till reaching Hochalm where I stayed on the Road and veered off to the Left and towards Feldalm, gaining a small trail on the right up to Kohllahnersattel 1513 m 4963 ft.with another right turn and more Elevation Gain up to Feldberg where I have been two weeks earlier in rainy Weather and no View. Today I got rewarded with Great Weather and Pleasant Afternoon Temperatures. The descent down to Ranggen Hochalm is steep but ok when it’s dry. Once reaching the Alm a Road leads down directly to the Car Parking Lot or Restaurant. A Great Hike with many Miles and Elevation Gain just as I had hopped for.
