Climbs

Steingrubenkogel from the east

The most frequently used variant is the marked trail from the south and east, known for short as "Ostgrat", the beginning of which can be reached from both the Gsallerweg and the Alpenklubscharte via the Nadelscharte . The trail includes minor climbs in difficulty UIAA I .

The south-west ascent ("west ridge") from the Alpenklubscharte is also very popular. The path, secured in places with wire ropes, leads past several needles over ribbons, cracks and small chimneys, finally over Schrofen to the summit. Here are some passages from UIAA II.

The other climbs, including a variant to the west ridge and the north flank of the Steingrubenscharte, are more difficult.
