Heubatspitze summit

Highlight • Summit

The summit itself is rather unspectacular, more interesting is the northern path to the summit, the so-called "Hohen Gänge", a rope-insured path in the T4 difficulty range.

The tour from Hinterstein to the Rotspitze via the Hohe Gänge to the Breitenberg is very varied and can be recommended without reservation. But you have to plan a day, depending on ability and amount of hiking you can leave time on the via ferrata and the 4 peaks invite you to take longer breaks.
