Tschigat (3,000 m) from the Leiter Alm mountain hut

The Tschigat is a striking peak in the Texel Group. The pyramid formed from gneiss offers a magnificent view of many mountain peaks. The tour to the Tschigat is not just a hike, but a real mountain tour with easy climbing passages (grade 2) in exposed terrain. Experience, a good physical condition, sure-footedness, a head for heights and stable mountain weather are prerequisites (dangerous with ice and snow).
