Description

The hike starts through the village street with numerous duty-free shops in Samnaun Dorf. At the end of the village street, it goes steadily uphill via Flurstraße to Val Musauna, always along the Schergenbach stream. From point 2087 the path becomes steeper up to the Zeblas meadows. From here it is not far to the Zeblasjoch, where the border to Austria is also located. From Zeblasjoch, continue past Palinkopf towards Salaaser Kopf, where an impressive panoramic view is offered: The Verwall group in the Paznauntal valley to the north, the Samnaun group with Muttler and Stammerspitz to the south, and Hexenkopf to the east, extending to the Ötztal Alps. Continue along the border ridge to the highest point of the hike, Greitspitz, then down to Viderjoch. Here you can either hike with the chairlift towards Alp Trida/Alp Trider Sattel or descend in about 45 minutes along the hiking path past the reservoir (used for winter snowmaking) down to Alp Trider Sattel.
