Turn-by-turn directions
AMBERGER HÜTTE (2.136 m) -> WATER CARARDS (3.103 m) -> HIGH-STUDENT HALL (3.174 m)
Gletschertour to Hochstubaihütte We walk first in the flat valley floor of the Sulze to the south and further to the right the slope, where the ascent soon divides and we take the right variant. Over the western edge moraine it goes south, until the view to the Sulztalferner opens. At the edge of the valley, it is raked, then we climb up on the right glacier edge leisurely and pass the foot of the Wild Leak. Finally, we go up a little faster to the mad karsattel (attention columns!). On the other side we descend down to the Wütenkarferner in brittle terrain and pass a small lake. The glacier is crossed in an arc and left at the western edge - here the path leads to the access route from Sölden to the Hochstubai hut. The observation deck of the special class is quickly reached and a climb leads on a wide ridge simply the last 100 heights to the shelter.
