Then take a slope up to Birgitzköpfhaus. After the hut you can either go to Nockspitze trough Mairinne or from the east. Descent from Nockspitze goes trough Mairinne through Birgitzköpfhaus all the way down to Mutters.

Medium Exposure (E2)
As well as the slope itself, there are some obstacles (such as rock outcrops) which could aggravate injury.
