Summit hike: Houfa hut & "Eisatz"(2.439m)

Summit hike: Houfa Hut & Eisatz (2,439 m)

Today we set off from the small hamlet of Schintelholz, above Pichl.

Right from the start of our hike, we have a view of the Dolomites, making for a wonderful climb up to the Houfa Hut at 1,883 m.

Now the going gets a bit steeper and we continue along a narrow path to the Dolomitensteig. From there, we carry on to the small summit of Hühnerspiel.

We follow the ridge through stunningly wild terrain; it’s slightly exposed and occasionally requires a hand for support, before we reach our panoramic summit: the Eisatz at 2,439m.

After a well-deserved rest with stunning views, we return to the Houfa Hut and, following a short stop for refreshments, head back to the starting point at Schintelholz.

Walking time: approx. 5 hours with approx. 1,000 metres of elevation gain

Difficulty: challenging hike

Packed lunch: Information will be provided at breakfast – please don’t forget to bring money for coffee.
