Approach


With a car you can reach the parking place below the dam of Goesskar lake (1670m). From there you take a narrow, for public traffic closed road to the Giessener Huette, 2215m. To the hut 1.5 hour. It`s good if you have with you a mountain bike with you!

Route Description


From the house in north direction by a marked path to the crossing and then you turn left to the Detmolder Grat. North it goes to the Steinerne Maennln. Then you walk on the marked path and before you come to the ridge you must always turn right on the crossings.

When you are on the ridge you walk on the stone path and then you are on the glacier. ( You can come to this point from the rout on Steinerne Maennln upon the glacier. -> Be carefule about the crevasse! )
When the glacier ends you finally climb to the summit over the steep rock wall. For some time is path very precipitious.

Usually you descend here and go up over Steinerne Maennln. ( Anyway when I go to the Hochalmspitze
I go in that direction.

Essential Gear


Ice rick, crampons, rope
