Hiking tour Brogles hut
Short description
Ideal for young and old: the hike to the Brogles Alm hut in Gröden.
Description
A family-friendly hike throughout: across the alpine pastures of Gröden to the majestic Geissler peaks, the local mountains of the young Reinhold Messner.
Starting point of the tour
St. Ulrich; valley station of the "Rasciesa lift" cable car
Destination point of the tour
Brogles Alm (2,045 m)
Route description
The valley station of the "Rasciesa" lift is located in St. Ulrich and takes you quickly and comfortably up to an altitude of 2,103 metres. This is where the hiking trail begins. Following trail marker no. 35, we first walk towards Flitzerscharte. Below this pass, the path runs over the tranquil Innerraschötzer Hochalm past pastures with grazing horses and cows. After just 90 minutes of easy hiking, you reach the Borgles-Alm (2,045 m) at the foot of the bizarre-looking Geißler peaks.
If you would like to choose an alternative way back, follow trail no. 5 from the Borgles-Alm to the middle station of the Seceda cable car. This will take you back to St. Ulrich.
