From the top of the Birgitzköpfl chairlift, make a long 100 - 200 metres traverse (depending on the exact line you want to ski) skier's left to some wide, shrub-filled shoulders separated by some narrow gullies. Pick a line down these, staying skier's right of a very deep gully to your left, heading for a patch of small trees above the beginners ski slope. Upon reaching the trees, enjoy realising how much better they look to ski through than they did from a distance, and blast down them! At the bottom of them, join the beginners slope and ski back to the chairlift.
Difficulty

Slopes become slightly steeper at around 25-30 degrees.
Low Exposure (E1)
Exposure is limited to that of the slope itself. Getting hurt is still likely if the slope is steep and/or the snow is hard.
Remoteness
Away from help but easily accessed.
