We follow trail 783a to the Pleschnitzzinkenhütte (1,944 m, self-catering hut) and continue over the ridge to the Pleschnitzzinken (2,112 m). Continue in a southerly direction after the ridge extension to the saddle (1,940 m) and then on to the Ochsenkarhöhe (1,957 m). From there we walk up to the Scheibleck (2,117m).
