Description

The best place to start is at the top of the Hahntenjoch pass. The hike is moderately difficult and very varied. You will hike through mountain pines and scree, as well as rocky sections that require your attention.
The key section of the tour is just below the saddle, where there is a short section with rope insurance. But don't worry, with a little caution and determination, you'll have no problem mastering it! As you make your way through the varied landscape, you can pause time and again to enjoy the impressive beauty of nature
The descent then takes place on the other side of the saddle to the Muttekopfhütte and on to the Latschenhütte. Along the way, you can enjoy the magnificent nature of the region and the fresh mountain air.
