Ratschinger Ridge and Alpine Hike

The Jaufen Ridge refers to the summit ridge extending westward from the Jaufen Pass, culminating at the Hohe Kreuzspitze and especially prominent above the Passeier Valley. On the north side is the Ratsching Valley with a series of alpine pasture areas, some of which have been allocated for skiing. Besides the Ratschinger Alm trail, a ridge hike is mainly of interest. Up to the Fleckner, the effort is moderate.

From the site of the demolished Sterzing Jaufen House, 1990 m, ascend briefly on the pass road until path no. 12 branches off to the right behind the Jaufen lift. You'll then proceed without major altitude changes along the gentle northern slope, sometimes crossing ski slopes. Slightly ascending, after about an hour we reach the Rinnersattel, 2031 m, where a southern access from the so-called Roman hairpin merges. From now on our route follows the scenic broad ridge. The Fleckner Hut remains below, while a summit with a cross is on the right side off-route. For the later descent, note the (unsigned) junction no. 10A and approach the Fleckner summit, 2331 m, which is most quickly ascended directly via the east ridge (trail trace).For the return, the official northern route with wider detours can be used. Then, following the aforementioned no. 10A, descend into a wide cirque on the Ratsching side. Temporarily stay right along the edge, then back left towards the first flat ground. Partly

Profile picture of Mark Zahel Author Mark Zahel
Mark Zahel hat als fleißiger Wanderer und Bergsteiger bisher mehr als 3000 Tage auf Alpentouren verbracht und schöpft aus dieser Passion seit über 20 Jahren eine intensive publizistische Tätigkeit. Die Liste seiner Buchveröffentlichungen umfasst inzwischen rund 80 Titel – in jüngster Zeit sind auch einige Wanderführer über norddeutsche Regionen hinzugekommen. Seine Kenntnisse reichen über weite Teile des Alpenbogens, besonders häufig aber ist er in dem breiten Streifen zwischen Bayern und Südtirol unterwegs. Zahel vergleicht seine Erkundungen gern mit einem Puzzlespiel, dem immer wieder neue Teile hinzugefügt werden, ohne dass es jemals »vollendet« werden könnte oder sollte. So bleibt die persönliche Entdeckungslust ungebrochen, während sich das »Gesamtbild« nach und nach immer detailreicher herausschärft.
