Starting from the Mining Museum in Maiern, at the head of the Ridnauntal valley, the itinerary initially follows trail no. 9. The ascent can either be made through the impressive Burkhardklammgorge (trail no. 8) or by continuing along trail no. 9 outside the gorge. Beyond the gorge, both routes rejoin at the dam on the Aglsböden plateau, leading along trail no. 9 towards the Grohmannhütte and Teplitzerhütte alpine huts.
From here, keep following trail no. 9, passing Vogelhüttensee lake and ascending more steeply to the glacial terminus. After crossing it, you reach the foot of the rocky spur known as “Becherfelsen”, where trail no. 9C leads to the Müllerhütte alpine hut.
Please note: this high-alpine hike requires surefootedness, mountain experience and a good level of physical fitness. The route is recommended for experienced hikers only.
The opening hours of mountain and alpine huts can be found here.
The starting point can be reached by bus line 312 (Sterzing/Vipiteno – Ridnaun/Val Ridanna). Get off at the final stop, “Bergbaumuseum/Museo delle Miniere”, located directly at the starting point of the hike. Further information on timetables and connections is available at www.suedtirolmobil.info/en.
From Sterzing, continue towards the Ridnauntal valley as far as Maiern, at the very end of the valley. The Mining Museum, which marks the starting point of the hike, is located here.
Parking is available at the Mining Museum in Maiern, at the end of the Ridnauntal valley, which marks the starting point of the hike.
