The T4 trail to Schillerkopf, coming from the Tschengla parking lot P3, is relatively easy to manage. There are only a few places where you need to use your hands, the trail is always clearly visible, and only a few sections are exposed.

Magnificent ski touring summit, very frequently visited. Fantastic panoramic view. From the ski depot it is usually a 200m walk up the ridge, which, like the southern flank, quickly melts. Powder snow descents are almost guaranteed.

At 2,134 metres, the Glatthorn is the highest mountain in the Bregener Ore Forest. You reach it via narrow paths and should be experienced and sure-footed. Once you reach the top, you can enjoy a sensational panorama if the weather is clear.
