From Freizeit Arena you walk to the car park of Giggijoch mountain gondola and further on to the hamlet of Hainbach. A steeply rising, fenced walking trail takes you up to the hamlets of Mahpuit and Leite. The beautiful path with almost no change in elevation leads across the forest to the road towards Granstein and the lovely mountain inn (short descending section).
