A challenging day's stage lies ahead of us today. We check the weather, the route and how we feel. If everything is perfect, then we set off on a high alpine adventure of boulders, ice and scree. Easy climbing provides the right spice. At the end of the stage, the cozy Martin-Busch-Hütte awaits us, nestled in high alpine scenery.
Difficult, challenging stage on black mountain paths. Sure-footedness and high alpine experience for challenging, partly pathless terrain is required. There are passages over boulders, ice, rock slabs and scree to overcome. Fixed ropes and steel stirrups make the ascent easier. A very good level of fitness is required.
Fixed ropes, steel pegs | Mountain guide recommended
