Beautiful snowshoe hiking to the Glungezer

Distance 4.8 km

Vollkommene Stille, nur leises Knirschen begleitet Schneeschuhwanderer. Selbst bei meterhohem Schnee sinkt man kaum ein, sondern geht sanft und sicher weiter. So lassen sich auch im Winter die verschneiten Gipfel erreichen.

Glungezerhütte

Turn-by-turn directions

We take the Glungezer cable car up the mountain to Halsmater (1567m). From Halsmater we start the snowshoe hike gently up along the ski slope till we reach the Tulfein Alm.

From the Tulfein Alm over clear slopes or left hand side up to the Schartenkogel (2.311m) and along the southern crest to the Glungezerhut (2.610m) or the Glungezer (2.677m). Up here you have got a fantastic view to 500 peaks, mountain ridges and down to the Inntal and the Karwendel.
