A rather demanding tour on the Gletscherhorn. Starting with a large flat portion, it becomes steeper and steeper towards the end of the basin and good ratios are a prerequisite.
The tour to the Gletscherhorn in the Bergalgatal starts from Avers-Juppa. Good conditions, harsh irons and a touring pimple are necessary on the tour. Starting from the parking lot of the ski resorts in Juppa, you first overcome a large flat part along the winter hiking trail to the "Olta Stofel". Afterwards you can follow the Bergalgabach to point about 2137. On the summer trail you reach point about 2363 and then follow the ribbon below the rocks until you reach the Glacier horn saddle. Over the northeast ridge it then goes to the summit with a spectacular view. The descent then follows the ascent route.
Geheimtipp
The Hotel Bergalga and Avers in Juppa are ideal for ending an eventful day with regional delicacies.
