High-alpine tours

 TOUR DESCRIPTION

The typical route to ascend Großglockner starts from Kals (East Tyrol). The mountain guides great the guests between 12:30 pm and 2:30 pm at the car park near Alpengasthof Lucknerhaus (1918 m) for an equipment check. Afterwards, the journey continues along the marked hiking trail through Ködnitztal valley, passing by Lucknerhütte (2241 m), and reach Stüdlhütte (2802 m) in approximately 2.5 hours. The overnight stay is either at the Stüdlhütte (2802 m) or the Adlersruhe (3454 m). 

The next morning, we set off bright and early after breakfast, aiming to reach the summit at sunrise. From the Stüdlhütte, we’ll reach the Adlersruhe (3454 m) in 2.5 hours. Next, we tackle the challenging ice slope of Glocknerleitl, secured with ropes and crampons, and navigate its winding twists and turns. Next up, we’ll venture into rocky terrain, tackling the Kleinglockner (3771 m) with a bit of easy climbing (I-II). Following a quick descent, we’ll reach the famous Glocknerscharte saddle and make our way up to the peak (1.5 hours).

Summit triumph with a magnificent view!

The descent is made along the same route, passing through Erzherzog Johann Hütte (Adlersruhe), and returning to the starting point, Stüdlhütte (3.5 hours).

The Stüdlgrat is the crème de la crème of all ridge climbs, leading you to the highest summit in Austria.

 TOUR DESCRIPTION

The tour starts at Stüdlhütte (2802 m), which can be easily reached in 2 to 3 hours from Lucknerhaus (1918 m). Come evening, it’s time to meet your mountain guide between 7 pm and 8 pm, where we’ll chat about the upcoming tour and make sure your gear is all set.
In the early morning, we’ll head over the Teischnitzkees (glacier) to the start of the ridge (1.5 hours). The Stüdlgrat is a proper alpine challenge with climbing sections in the third to fourth difficulty level. Within the tight rock formations, there are also alternating passages of climbing and walking terrain. In the upper section of the ridge, the climbing challenges ramp up and offer some mind-blowing views.

Accompanied by seasoned mountain guides, we conquer the highest peak in Salzburg, Großvenediger (3666 m), using the North Route, securely roped together as we cross the glacier. We trace the footsteps of the first ascenders along the historic route, kicking off our journey in Neukirchen. The tour lasts 1.5 days with an overnight stay at the Kürsingerhütte. It’s technically easy yet physically demanding and limited to a maximum group size of eight participants.

 STARTING POINT 
We’ll meet at 3 pm at the car park in Neukirchen for an equipment check. Next up, we’ll hop on the Venediger Taxi and make our way to the valley station of the material ropeway. From there, we’ll ascend to the Kürsinger Hut with the mountain guide, and in the evening, we’ll discuss the tour.

 TOUR DESCRIPTION
After breakfast, there’s a short and easy ascent to the roping-up point. From there, we continue roped together over the glacier towards the Venediger Scharte. The thin icy ridge at the summit is the crucial point for reaching the peak of the Großvenediger (hike time from Kürsinger Hütte to Großvenediger around 3.5 to 4 hours).

The descent is made by retracing our steps back to the Kürsinger Hut and then onto the material ropeway. We take the Venediger Taxi back to the car park.
