Breathtaking steep ski tour at the south side of the “Tuxer Hauptklamm”.
The Äußerer Nockenkopf is famous for being a rather easy mountain to ski and also for its beautiful location above the highest hamlet in the eastern Alps. The ski tour begins at the end of the village of Resia/Reschen. Altitude gain: 1,250 m Time to ascend: roughly 4 hours Slope direction: east Skiing demands: medium Climbing demands: easy Note: exercise caution during the ascent after the Kalkwaldhütte mountain hut and on the summit slope! For the ascent to the peak, follow the route to the left at the end of the Pofel ski lift. Follow the groomed trail to the Vallierteck pilgrimage chapel. Above the chapel, turn right, following the signs to ‘Nockenkopf’ until you reach the road that leads to the Reschner Alm Alpine farm. From here bear left heading gently downhill and then right again along the trail following the signs to the ‘Kalkwaldhütte’ mountain hut. Here head rather carefully from left to right uphill over the moderately steep and wide ridge to the Stielegg cross. Traverse horizontally with caution to the left (west) into the large trough, continuing to ascend to the left toward the foot of the Nockenkopf’s southern slope. Keeping to the right, head up the rather steep slope and over the ridge to the peak. Those looking for a quicker ascent can drive to Roia/Rojen. Avalanche danger: minimal
Starting point of the ski tour to the Glockhauser mountain is the car park in Melago/Melag. From there north-westward across soft ground up to the last post of a disused ski lift. Across the steep slope towards the right and further towards Melagtal Valley. At the bridge, cross to the right-hand side of the valley and at a height of 2,300 m veer left to the Schönkar ridge. After the large trough from right to left across stepped terrain on to a shoulder. Across the back, left up to the ridge (take care!) and further up to the summit. Your climb is rewarded with a beautiful valley view and panoramic view to the nearby summits.
Descend via the Mitterkar or along the ascent route.
Be aware of the avalanche danger. More information at the alpine schools and the mountain guides.
A detailed map is available in the tourist offices.

One climbs up a little steeply to the left of the right stream and ends on a hill at the beginning of a wide, flat valley. Through this valley to its end. There through a short but steep hollow up to a saddle (2600 m). Through the following, flat hollow at the left edge until
to their end. Up through a hollow again. Then first right over a ridge and further left into a flat depression (2800 m).
