Arrival by public transport
From the train station Innsbruck are regularly running busses to Neustift - Falbeson.
Today's stage is one of the longer sections of the high-altitude trail in the Stubai Alps, is very demanding and takes us to the highest point of the Weitwanderweg: the Grawagrubennieder. Today's task: say Grawagrubennieder 10 times in quick succession without getting a knot in your tongue. After all, we want to enjoy Gröstl & Co. at the Dresdner Hütte.
Difficult stage on black mountain paths. Alpine experience as well as surefootedness and walking technique are required. Good fitness and concentration for some very steep ascents. Pay attention to snow conditions.
NEUE REGENSBURGER HUT– DRESDNER HUT
Ascent/Descent: ⬆ 1033 Hm ⬇ 1008 Hm
Time required: 7 hours
Length: 13 km
Lowest point: 2,280 m
Highest point: 2,876 m
Stage III of the circular trail through the Stubai Valley takes you from the Regensburger Hut to the Dresdner Hut. There is an ascent / descent of 1,750 m over a distance of around 13 km – the highlight of the tour is without a doubt the impressive glacier landscape, which you steadily approach on this route.
From the hut, head through the valley alongside the Hohes Moos, and then up towards the mountain lake ‘Falbesoner See’. Even before reaching the lake, the trail crosses the valley below the Hochmoosferner and leads to the steep ascent up to the Grawagrubennieder (2 ½ hours from the Neue Regensburger Hut). From Grawagrubennnieder, continue under the spur of the Grawawandferner along a slope with many rocky outcrops.
After that, you pass below the mountain lake ‘Mutterberger See’. From there, the trail descends to the bottom of the Glamersgrube, ascending again on the other side through the Wilde Grube into a saddle and down to the Dresdner Hut.
From the train station Innsbruck are regularly running busses to Neustift - Falbeson.
