Mountain hikes Lucknerhaus - Stüdlhütte

Kals am Großglockner / Glockner Group
Difficulty ratings: medium
Route length: 9.3 km
Duration: 4:30 h

As famous for its shape as for its location: the Stüdlhütte nestles in the Fanatscharte and is the starting point for tours to the Großglockner. For the less ambitious, however, the ascent from the Lucknerhaus is enough.

Tour character

Medium-difficulty tour from the Lucknerhaus via the Lucknerhütte to the Stüdlhütte. Initially on a road, later on a path, the route climbs steadily but is otherwise not difficult. With a bit of luck, you might spot the marmots and ibex that live here. At the Stüdlhütte, which serves as a base for tours to the Grossglockner, you can meet alpinists before and after the Glockner ascent.

Description

Drive up the Kalser Glocknerstraße to the Glocknerwinkel car park (toll charge).

With the Großglockner constantly in view, the AV trail 702 B leads from the Lucknerhaus for approx. 1 hour through the scenically varied Ködnitztal (opportunities to observe marmots, chamois, and ibex) to the Lucknerhütte and continues on the same route via the “Viehböden” to the Stüdlhütte on the Fanat-Scharte in another 1.5 hours.

The Stüdlhütte is an ideal and frequently chosen starting point for ascents of the Großglockner.
