Path description:
From the parking lot, take the leftmost road towards Kohlerhütte. The path takes you along a winding road with occasional views. A little higher up, the road crosses a couple of streams and leads to a resting place called 'Maria in der Zirbe'. The road slowly becomes a little worse and climbs a little more. After 40 minutes of walking, the path leads to a grassy slope where you can see a larger shepherd's hut on the right.
Continue along the road for another five minutes and you will reach the Turkenkreuz, a crossroads where you continue straight down towards the Wildsee and the Rohrer Hütte. After a short descent, the path turns left, where it crosses a wide stream over a small bridge. There is a barely noticeable climb which, after a few minutes, leads to the next cross and, shortly after, to a crossroads.
Continue right towards the Wildsee and Zirbitzkogel. Continue along the marked but sometimes slightly less visible path, which leads to the Wildsee in a gentle to moderate ascent on grassy slopes.
Continue up the left side of the lake in a slightly steeper ascent. After a 30-minute climb from the lake, the path, which is barely visible in places, leads to a wide grassy ridge where you reach a crossroads. Continue right in the direction of Zirbitzkogel. After a short gentle climb, the path leads us to the top slope of mountain Fuchskogel. Here we see two peaks of approximately the same height to the left and right. The right-hand one is slightly higher and is reached after a few steps on a pathless trail.
PP: The crossing is less than one minute.
