TouringTip | Tschaggunser Mittagsspitz

In the midst of the most beautiful mountains in the Rätikon

by Irian van Helfteren 12/15/2018
Seen from the valley, the Tschaggunser Mittagspitze is a striking peak, but apart from the last few meters from the ski depot to the summit, it is an easy ski tour. The last few meters to the summit require absolute surefootedness, but you will be rewarded with an impressive view!

Ascent


There are several options for the ascent to the Tschaggunser Mittagsspitze (and the descent). The easiest and safest option is described here.
You can start directly behind the parking lot on a slope and ascent in the direction of Lindauer Hütte. Stay left at the fork after the bridge. After reaching a few huts and passing a forest aisle on the left, take the goods road on the left towards Alpe Grabs. From Alpe Grabs, the trail climbs steeply up to Hochegga. Follow a wide forest path to the right to the Alpilaalpe at 1686 m. The path to the Alpe hardly climbs any more.

You now go slightly uphill past the alp on the right. After crossing a hollow in a large left-hand bend, the route climbs up wide slopes to the saddle. The summit is still a little to the east. The last few meters are covered without skis. An easy climb (I -II) takes you to the summit. There you will be rewarded with a panoramic view of the most beautiful mountains in the Rätikon!

Descent

The descent follows the ascent.

Details

Special dangers: The last steep slope of the tour is often blown in and should therefore be enjoyed with caution. If in doubt, turn back in good time!

Starting point: Latschau/car park above the reservoir (1000 m)

Exposure: Mostly NW

Altitude difference uphill | downhill: 1170 m each

Access: From Tschagguns in Montafon to Latschau, turn left immediately before the power station uphill towards Gauertal/Lindauer Hütte. After a few meters you will reach a parking lot on the right-hand side above the power station
