Grossglockner (3798m) — Normal Route (Stuedlgrat) (Grossglockner)
Terrain Overview
View Mountain →
Grossglockner (3,798m) is the highest peak in Austria and one of the finest alpine objectives in the Eastern Alps. The Stuedlgrat (Stüdl Ridge) is the classic route, a long rock and snow ridge from the Lucknerhaus at 1,918m to the summit via the Stüdlhütte at 2,802m. Day one ascends through pastures and moraine to the hut; day two climbs the mixed ridge with glacier sections and exposed scrambling to the double summit. A guide is highly recommended for crevasse and route-finding on the upper glacier.
