Approach
From Sulden, climb on a marked path via Tabaretta hut to the Payer Hut (3029 m). Easy, in the upper parts a bit exposed.
Route Description
The normal route is a moderate rock climb and glacier trip. In the rocky section, there is a steep part secured by a chain and one shorter part up to grade II-III (pitons, most people use a rope). Then, there is one steep snow slope (Bärenloch) which can be tricky in icy conditions late in the season (September). The rest is a relatively easy glacier walk up to the summit.
Essential Gear
Full equipment for glaicer travel (harness, crampon, ice axe, rope). For the rocky section you just need a few biners.
