Details

Description

From the Berghaus Arflina the route leads northwest and passes a hollow at Caua. Keeping the direction, one ascends east of point 2153 (small lake) over the broad southeast ridge of Glattwang into the upper hollow below the summit slope. The last part leads over the south ridge to the summit Glattwang (2376 m above sea level). Descent along the ascent route or, under appropriate conditions, down via Alp Larein to Jenaz.


Attention! Below Alp Larein is the Oberwald wildlife reserve - the route goes from the lower slope via Särra - Schlegel. Thank you for respecting nature! 


Alternative: Descent to Fideris, where another wildlife reserve must also be observed. 

Hidden Gem

Use the shuttle buses of the Fideriser Heuberge as ascent assistance. This way you have more time to enjoy the magnificent mountain world of the Fideriser Heuberge.
