Glungezer: the name is already unusual, deviates from the usual. According to Wikipedia, it is probably a soundplay interpretation of gurgling water. Anyway: we want to go to the Glungezer, because from this summit you have a wonderful view down into the Inn Valley. You can see distant mountain groups like the Kaisergebirge. The hut just below the summit is cozy and the hut warden informs everyone who wants to hike over the ridge to the Lizumer Hut the next day where you should be after 3 hours: "If you haven't arrived there in 3 hours, you must definitely turn back." It couldn't be clearer and really helps. It will be 7 peaks on the second day, always following the ridge southwards.
