The Eiskögele is the shortest ski tour from the Langtalereckhütte. Ascent along the hut approach to the Langtalereckhütte and after a comfortable and enjoyable overnight stay ascent to the Eiskögele with descent into the Rotmoostal - a great round tour with fantastic views from the summit, plus great ski slopes with mostly quiet powder on the descent.

Duration:
2-day

Day 1, Variant 1:
Independent ascent from Obergurgl via the Schönwieshütte and the Gurgler Almhütte to the Langtalereckhütte.

Attention: The hut approach from the Schönwieshütte is marked with poles and mostly prepared, but not secured against alpine dangers (avalanches).
