This demanding mountain tour starts at Lake Antholz and leads over Rotwand peak (2,818 m) and Höllensteinspitze peak (2,755 m) to the Grüblscharte (2,394 m), before descending to Antholz Obertal. This traverse is one of the most impressive alpine routes in the upper valley, offering spectacular views of the Rieserferner Group and the surrounding high mountain landscape.
The route along the panoramic ridge is part of the well-known 11-Summit Tour and provides a true high alpine experience. The ascent first heads towards Staller Saddle, before climbing up to Rotwand peak. From there, the route continues across alpine terrain to Höllensteinspitze peak and on to Grüblscharte.
A special highlight along the way are the Ochsenfelder Lakes, beautifully set in the alpine landscape.
The tour mostly takes place in open terrain and requires good fitness, sure-footedness, and alpine experience.
As an option, the tour can be shortened by taking the 2-Lakes shuttle up to Staller Saddle.
The descent leads from Grüblscharte down to Antholz Obertal, from where you can comfortably return to the starting point by bus line 431.
