Eggberg (oua_9158079_2c3cf3c_profile)

Beautiful route, which due to its length and technical demands is also suitable for ski touring novices. Often very good snow conditions already in early winter. Magnificent view from the summit.

Details

Description

From Litzirüti, head southeast along the old path by the stream to the Eggelti and further to Dörfji (1658 m above sea level), the first Walser settlement of St. Antönien, which today encompasses three small buildings. At Dörfji, cross the stream and climb towards the legendary Schlangenstein, then at the forest edge turn right and ascend. Heading southwest, you reach the Jenazer Alp (Säss) at 1941 m. From this herders' hut, the route goes south towards point 2204. The summit of Eggberg is reached via the ridge. The descent into the Gafiental follows the ascent route.


Attention! The slopes towards St. Antönien must not be used - this is the Wildruhezone Eggberg-Ischa. Thank you for respecting the nature! 

Hidden Gem

With excellent slush snow conditions, the descent towards Ascherina is worthwhile (pay attention to wildlife protection zones).
