Directions
The starting point of the hike is the hamlet of Platten (1600 m) near Pfalzen. Follow the well-marked trail no. 67 on a wide path, partly flat, partly slightly ascending through the forest to the alpine hut Plattner Alm (1,940 m), which is open from June to October. Then hike up to the small lakes "Plattner Seen" over somewhat steeper alpine pasture terrain, continue eastwards to the ridge and follow a good path over the ridge westwards to reach the summit cross (2,435 m).
Across the Plattner Spitze, the Pfunderer high trail leads westwards to the nearby summit Bärentaler Spitze (2,450 m) and eastwards to the peak Sambock (2,396 m).
