Hiking

This hike is part of the fourth stage of the Stubai High Trail, between the Dresdner Hut and the Sulzenau Hut. First, you take the Stubai Glacier Cable Car from Mutterberg up to the Fernau mid-station. Passing the famous Dresdner Hut, you follow the Stubai High Trail over the Fernaubach stream. You then begin a challenging climb through scree slopes – the path is narrow, and in some places, there are ropes to hold on to.

You zigzag up to the Peiljoch, the highest point of your tour at 2,672 meters. Then, you descend steeply to the turquoise Sulzenausee, which has formed below the Sulzenauerner. The rushing Sulzenaubach stream accompanies you all the way to your destination at the Sulzenau Hut. After a rest or a night in the hut, you can descend to the Grawa Alm, where you have access to the public bus network.

Stoamandl as far as the eye can see. A feast for the eyes. The view of the glacier does the rest.

Sulzenausee

Highlight • Lake

On August 11, 2017, the glacier lake was pushed out of its bed by a massive moray eel and the moray eels and water masses caused great damage as far as the Sulzenauer hut and then further down into the valley. At that moment I was at the hut.
