Scharnitz (09:40) - Karstenalm (12:50)
Karstenalm (13:40) - Hallerangerhut (15:20)
Around 5 hours of walking with a lunch break at Karstenalm. Great weather for hiking and mostly gravel road and paths.
Day 2 (18-07-23):
Hallerangerhut (08:15) - Bettelwurf Hut (14:30)
Around 6 hours of walking with a climb to Speckkarspitze in between. Mostly mountain trails and challenging climb near Speckkarspitze. Weather was great, lots of sunshine but a thunderstorm arrived when we just finished our lunch at our destination.
Day 3 (19-07-23):
Bettelwurf Hut (08:45) - Pfeishütte (12:45)
4 hours of walking with a steep slope towards the Stempeljoch. Mostly mountain trails, but a very challenging scree ascent called the Wilde Bandesteig near the Stempeljoch. Weather started poorly with mist and rain, but cleared in the afternoon.

Seegrubbe (10:30) - Solsteinhaus (15:30)
7 hours of walking with very challenging mountain trails and a terrifying descend down a scree slope with loose rocks. The path mellowed down after that, but still many ascents and descents making this track the most difficult. Weather started okayish with some mist and cloud cover in the morning, clearing up around noon.
Day 5 (21-07-23):
Solsteinhaus (07:40) - Hochzirl (09:30)
2 hour stroll down the mountain towards the nearest rain station (we changed our plans due to the weather). Weather forecast indicated thunderstorms. Path was mostly gravel roads down towards Hochzirl.

About the Calorie Calculator
Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.
When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.
Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
