Snowy peak

Approach from Gossensaß to St. Anton in Hinterpflersch, on the shady side on a narrow road almost to the Stein bridge and continue left to a car park near the waterfall “in der Hölle” (approx. 1465 m). From there, follow the signs “Magdeburger Hütte” first on the bridge over the Talbach stream and soon after on the old hut trail, following marker 6 through largely open terrain, defined by grassy slopes and rocky sections, climbing gently at first and later more steeply up to the Magdeburger Hütte (2423 m; also on the maps as the Schneespitzhütte, summer management; sleeps 80); from the car park a good 2 ½ hours. – From the hut on the good trail 6 up to the fork in the trail, right (signpost “Schneespitze”) partly pathless over boulders in an almost level slope traverse to a glacial lake, right over a moraine (always well marked) up to the foot of the rocky eastern ridge and over it following the markings and cairns partly on a sloping path, but mostly pathless over boulders steeply up
