Access to starting point:
Arriving by train in Mallnitz is one of the good options, as it allows crossing from the southern side of this part of the Hohe Tauern to the northern side and then return by train through the Tauern tunnel, which with 8371m is the longest railway tunnel through the Hohe Tauern. Between Mallnitz and Bad Gastein through the tunnel also runs the car train. The nearest road connection is 178 kilometres long.

Access by car is on the motorway to Spittal and the exit for Lienz. Then on the regional road past Lendorf, after which after a few kilometres turn right in the direction of Möllbrücke, Mühldorf and Obervellach. Soon after Obervellach turn right towards Mallnitz. In Mallnitz drive to the railway station (also car train to Bad Gastein through the 8371 m long Tauern tunnel).
Path description:
From the railway station 100 meters along the road towards Mallnitz. Before the stream Seebach turn right and follow the signs for Via Alpina. The path runs along the stream to the first houses in Mallnitz. Here turn left over the bridge, after the bridge right and then reach the main road, where there is nearby a crossroads with many green signs. Turn onto the left road, where the signs for Jamnigalm and Hagener Hütte point.

Then follow the road out of the town of Mallnitz to the last houses, where turn right and ascend to the more attractive footpath (junction marked). Alternatively, the road can be followed. The path first ascends and then runs about 50 meters above the road, which is rarely seen. The path has many benches and interesting information, stories and fairy tales, so it is very popular in summer for short walks with children. On the path always follow the signs for Jamnigalm, Hagener Hütte or Stockerhütte. At one point there is an unmarked fork and here continue left keeping in mind that the road is crossed once more later. The path is then gentle, occasionally even slightly losing height, until it reaches the road. Cross the road on the carriageway, which then runs through the forest. Soon the path to Stockerhütte branches right, which is the last hut before the road barrier (toll 4 euros). From here the path becomes steeper, but up to the pasture fence it is still wide. Always follow the signs for Jamnigalm or path number 110. Soon after the barrier the forest thins and the path becomes more scenic and offers increasingly beautiful views over the valley and the town of Mallnitz. After some steeper sections and crossing torrent beds the path flattens and the slopes of the Jamnig pasture appear. The path leads to the road under the pasture, along which it is another 5 minutes to the pasture.

The forest ends with the pasture. To the Hagener hut always walk on the wide path, which ascends gently and occasionally in serpentines. On the left the mountains Feldseekopf and Vorderer Geißlkopf are clearly visible, on the right rises the slope of the mountain Greilkopf. The path forks only five minutes before the destination, where turn right towards the mountain Greilkopf (left is the hut).

From here the path is not marked, but well visible, the direction logical, as it follows the ascending ridge first to the subpeak and then to the summit of Greilkopf, from where there is a beautiful view, especially on the eastern part of the Hohe Tauern.
On the way: Seebach (1191m), Stockerhütte (1290m), Jamnigalm (1750m), Hagener Hütte (2446m)
