Turn right and make your way to Cafè Konrad (path 26A), turn right again and walk along the Burgweg to Mitterplars and to the valley terminal of the Vellau lift facility. From there, take the siddewalk along the road to Algund back to the village centre. Alternatively, turn right from the Schlundenstein, take the path to the Ebeneicherweg.
