Linker Fernerkogel (3277 m) from Mandarfen
The Linker Fernerkogel in the uppermost Pitztal is a classic glacier ski tour suitable for almost the entire winter season. The traverse with descent via the “Hängender Ferner” is best done in spring conditions.
K2 (3253m) from Mandarfen
Classic Pitztal spring ski mountaineering via the Löcherferner glacier with a short summit bootpack and a long 1600m descent back to the valley.
Rostizkogel (3375m) from Mandarfen
A proper ski high tour above the Rifflsee: big, open glacier terrain, a surprisingly “quiet” 3000er experience next to the heavily frequented K2, and a huge panoramic summit plateau with views toward Wildspitze and the Taschachferner.
Rosskopf (2305m) from Scheibe
A promising mid-winter summit on the edge of the Kaunergrat, featuring open ski terrain, clear line choice, and an impressive panorama. Rosskopf, also known as Kreuzjoch, is a subsidiary peak with an ideal location for a winter tour. From the starting point in Scheibe, the ascent leads via the Arzler Alm and then over open slopes to the summit. Particularly impressive are the views to the east across the entire Geigenkamm range with the Hohe Geige, as well as to the southwest toward the imposing Rofelewand and the Gsallkopf.
Rofelewand (3353m) from Pitztal
An imposing summit in the Kaunertal ridge, sometimes called the Matterhorn of Kaunergrat.
