Old Guggihütte
At 2380 meters above sea level, just above a ledge, a path branches to south west and leads to the old Guggihuette (coordinates: 640604 / 157260 ). This was in operation from 1874 to 1893 and was never popular with mountaineers. The visitors complained that it was damp and icy until the summer months. The hut was removed from the registers as early as 1889.
