Route 

There are 2 routes down to the Sonnalpin, you can either take the Bavarian Glacier cable car or you can climb down via the schneefernerhaus. The tour continues over the Zugspitz plateau to the Knorr Hut, then via the Plattensteig to the gatterl. From there you hike over the feldernjöchl to the brandjoch, past the Hochfeldernalm and the Pestkspelle and down to the mountain station of the Ehrwalder Alm cable car. From there you can take the Ehrwalder Alm cable car back down the valley if you wish as the tour to that point takes approx. 5 hours.

The tour can also be undertaken in reverse, starting in the Ehrwalder Alm and finishing at the Tiroler Zugspitz cable car.
