The tourist resort of Serfaus, which is in the immediate vicinity, is often selected as the start point for tours of the mountain.
The ski area of Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis runs close to the mountain, which makes it much easier to climb.
An ascent from the lift may be made on one of two waymarked paths: Both routes may be combined in a crossing (taking about 5.5 hours).
Two memorial tablets recall these events: "Heiliges Kreuz sei unsere Fahne in dem Kampf und jeder Not die uns wecke die uns mahne treu zu sein bis in den Tod" (Errichtet von den Burschen und den Männern von Serfaus, 1957) and "Neu errichtet 1988 - Allen Helfern und Spendern Dank und Gottes Segen".
On another memorial tablet, Siegmund Oberacher (born 16 November 1944, died 23 March 1997) is commemorated by members of the Serfaus Mountain Rescue and by his family : "Wenn Du erschöpft bist, suche neue Kräfte in den Höhen der Berge, wo Du Gott und dir selber am nächsten sein kannst.
