Zufrittspitze

Zufrittspitze is an Alpine summit in South Tyrol that rises to 3439 meters (11,283 feet) with an iron cross marking its peak. The summit offers wide views across the Ulten Valley and surrounding mountain ranges.

Mountain paths developed over centuries as local communities established routes through the Alps to connect valleys and enable trade between regions.

The mountain huts along the route serve as gathering places where hikers and climbers rest and share stories of their journeys through the Alps.

The hike requires advanced skills and solid equipment because of rocky terrain and altitude. Plan plenty of time for the challenging route and use the mountain huts along the way to rest and regain energy.

A permanent snow formation called Wechte marks the final approach and requires safe passage through chain-secured rock. This distinctive feature is appreciated by experienced climbers on the route.
