Neighboring huts and crossings

  • to the Stuttgarter Hütte over the Vallugaschulter, Schrofen with rope insurance, approx. 3½ hours. The summit of the Valluga can be "taken with you", marked path, Schrofen, approx. 1 hour more effort.
  • to the Stuttgarter Hütte via the Trittscharte and the Robert-Bosch-Weg , 3 hours. The descent from the Trittscharte is very problematic in late summer / autumn due to the bare ice of the Pazielferner without crampons. In addition, an unstable block slope was exposed due to the glacier retreat below the notch (as of September 2012).
  • to the Leutkircher hut over the Valfagehrjoch. The crossing of the southern slope of the Weißschrofenspitze leads through a terrain that is considered a bit unsafe and easily prone to falling rocks, here also rope insurance. From the Kapall junction, you can take a parallel path to the south, below, to Bacheregg, from where you return to the path to the Leutkircher hut.
  • to the Kaltenberghütte via St. Christoph in four hours.
