Ascent to the Roßgundscharte
The starting point for the tour is the valley station of the Fellhornbahn in Oberstdorf. You can ski directly to the parking lot. From there, you initially climb a few meters up the valley descent until you turn left onto a forest path into the forest towards Warmatsgund. From here, a small path winds its way through the forest and you soon pass a tributary of the Warmatsgundbach stream. You cross this on a narrow bridge and then follow the path to the next fork in the path at approx. 1269m. There the path branches off to the left in the direction of Warmatsgund or to the right in the direction of Fellhorn. A small hut can be noted as a recognition point. Turn left here and follow the path until you reach a forest road that leads past the Höfle-Alpe and the Warmatsgundalpe into the Warmatsgund basin.
Alternatively, you can also walk up the slope to the Fellhorn-Mittel-Station and turn off directly onto the forest road there, but this option is much less scenic. Once in the basin, you now walk almost to the end and then keep slightly to the left. From here it becomes steep for the first time and you climb up in hairpin bends to the ruined Küh-Gund Alpe. Once there, you can see the real potential of this terrain. From here, you now climb the last few meters in the direction of Roßgundscharte.
