Großglockner single push with Laura Dahlmeier
Für konditionsstarke Bergsteiger:innen
Austria's highest peak towers over the surrounding valleys by more than 2,000 meters. Climbing the Grossglockner as a day tour from the valley is a huge challenge.
With Laura Dahlmeier But as a mountain guide, you have the perfect guide. The state-certified mountain guide not only has the necessary know-how, but of course also enough physical reserves to accompany you on this experience.
You need to be in very good physical condition to climb the Grossglockner in one day, as you can expect to climb and descend almost 2,000 meters. In good conditions, and if you have the necessary experience on the rock, Laura will suggest a traverse with ascent via the Stüdlgrat and descent via the normal route. Climbing up to grade III on the Stüdlgrat is pure enjoyment and is considered one of the alpine ridges that you "must have done".
The advantage of the single-push ascent is that you can travel light. After an early start at the Lucknerhaus parking lot at 1,900 m above sea level, you first hike on good paths to the Stüdlhütte, which you will reach in just under 2 hours at a suitable pace. After another hour over scree and pathless terrain, you will soon reach the 3,175 m high Luisenscharte at the start of the Stüdlgrat. For the subsequent 500 m of climbing in grade III difficulty, you have to reckon with another 3 hours, i.e. a total ascent of 6 hours at a brisk pace.
Als Alternative bietet sich der Normalweg im Auf- und Abstieg an. Der ist deutlich einfacher, erfordert aber auch anstrengende Kletterei am Gipfelaufbau.
Insgesamt wirst du an diesem Tag 10 Stunden mit unterwegs sein.
