You take the hiking bus or go by feet (2 h) to the Niger Pass (1.690 meters). The hike starts at the parking place. The path n. 1 leads us upwards along a forest trail. When you reach a branch of the way you switch on the trail n. 7. The trail is going upwards passing the Baumann (a former alpine farmhouse of the Baumann estate near Castle Prösels) and then the Tscheiner forest. Enjoy the fascinating view of the Laurins wall and the top of the Rosengarten. Slightly ascending and descending, the path leads you to the Angel meadows. We recommend a short ascent to the private Bergler hut at 2.020 meters.
Great views of to the Rosengarten, the north walls of the Vajolet towers and the glaciers in the west.
After a short steep descent, you come to the Haniger hut (1.905 meters). Enjoy lunch just below the Vajolet towers.
The descent runs via path number 7 through beautiful larch tree forests and Alpine meadows to the Plafötsch hut (1.560 metres) and then to the hotel Cyprianerhof.
