Today's stage requires glacier experience and appropriate equipment, as we are crossing a glacier today. Basic climbing skills for the Gaislehnscharte are also necessary. At the end of the day, the cozy Amberger Hütte awaits us.
Difficult, challenging stage on black mountain paths. Sure-footedness and high alpine experience for walking on glaciers is required. Orientation for pathless terrain required. Climbing skills for the Gaislehnscharte and a very good level of fitness are required.
Ice axe, crampons, rope | Mountain guide recommended.
