From the quiet side, this route reaches a highly developed mountain. This has the advantages of an often solitary ascent while still having ski slope infrastructure.
Easy ski/splitboard route to start the winter season. Suitable for beginners with accompaniment. Natural and quiet route to the Alpspitz away from the hustle and bustle.
Author’s recommendation
Those who are not satisfied can also climb the Edelsberg (1624 m) starting from the hollow south of the Alpspitz.
Derived from the technical difficulty and the stamina requirements.
