Prerequisite for this route is high alpine experience and equipment (glacier region). The starting point is the Franz Senn Hut. The route leads southwest along the Alpeiner stream to the Alpeiner Glacier. Then it continues westwards over the Verborgen Berg Glacier to the Turm notch. Here the skis are packed onto the backpack and on the partially secured path it goes a short stretch to the Turm notch. From here again on skis to the summit structure and finally an easy climb of about 30 meters to the summit. The descent follows the ascent route. Variants are possible in this extensive terrain.
