    The summit can be worthily climbed from several sides. This time we choose the ascent from Boden via the Hahntennjoch road, the Steinkar, and the north flank steeper than 40°.

    Author’s recommendation

    Secure powder snow, which remains long on the north flank and in the Steinkar, is the best prerequisite for an extraordinary skiing pleasure.

    Safety information

    The ascent through the north flank often requires the use of crampons. To assess the conditions in the flank (snow quality, rocks), one should definitely ascend through it as well.

    Roadbook

    We first go leisurely over the Hahntennjoch road, which is closed in winter, to Pfafflar and further into the Steinkar. Through the gently rolling dwarf pine terrain, we ascend to the end of the highest-reaching snow slope on the north flank. From here, a snow band logically leads left and then straight to the exit – usually you have to carry the skis on your backpack for at least parts of the route.

    From the exit, you can already see the summit cross. A broad ridge leads us to the ski depot below the subpeak. With a traverse on easy terrain to the right, we reach the main peak.

    The descent follows the ascent route.
