Route: Right behind the Gasthof Bad Bergfall you go on on the on forestall way (path n. 32) for a little while over two hairpins (direction West), then the path turns toward Sud, in Langtal. From here you easily reach a bridge that leads right over a stream. Now you can either go on on the left side of the stream, or once crossed the bridge turn left so that you will find yourself on the right side of the stream. At an high of 1700 m the ditch divides. Now you go on on the right side of the valley uphill for a while through the forest. After a while the terrain becomes flat again and you can walk through a light section of forest and then arrive to the so-called Lapedurscharte (2200 m). Right before arriving to the path sign, you have to turn right and the toward West over a bump. After other bumps, you will reach without problems the crest – unfortunately you will loose 25 m of hight – without problems in the highest point with the cross. If you will not be satisfied, you can go on along the crest and reach the Piz da Peres (2057 m ).

Starting point: Maso Corto/Kurzras (2,011 m a.s.l)
Ascent: 646 m elevation gain, 3 hours, from the Giogo Alto/Hochjoch glacier (Refuge Bella Vista 2,842 m a.s.l)
Best time for departure A: December to May
Best time for departures B and C: March to May

This is a very pleasant tour on a mountain that is still very much glaciated on the north side but that is not without its risks in one part where the “icefall” east of the Giogo Alto/Hochjoch glacier is hazardous due to glacier crevasses. The ascent is from Maso Corto/Kurzras to the Bella Vista lodge or with the Schnalstal valley cable car to the Giogo Alto/Hochjoch glacier; you leave the east side by climbing through the icefall. Avoiding the crevasses, the trail rises steeply to the upper glacier terrace, and keeping to the west of the summit, very steeply to the ridge shoulder. Continue along the short but exposed ridge to the summit.

Descent A: go along the ascent route to the Giogo Alto/Hochjoch pass and descend to the valley as far as Maso Corto/Kurzras or take the Schnalstal Valley cable car.

Descent B: Taking the first steep slope down, then to the right/north-east and continue south-easterly and southwards to the Giogo Alto/Niederjoch pass and on to the Refuge Similaun.

Descent C: Northwards towards the Hochjoch-Hospiz hut and Vent (A)

For good skiers with Alpine experience

This ski-tour starts at the car park Lake Gioveretto, from there you follow the path no. 10 to the managed Lyfi mountain hut. You pass the mountain hut on your right and continue trough the forest by following the same sign until the junction of paths.

From there the way is steep and demanding, but when you reach the Lyfi peak, you have a wonderful view over the snow-covered Venosta Valley.
