We went hiking again.
Without the high mountains, we could not get along this year after all. So we are again driven into the Stubai valley to take a part of the Stuabier Mountain Trail.
4:09:10 arrival at the entry in Neustift
We drove all day and evening arrival in Neustift. Like last year, we have the tent too and want to stay right at the entrance.
We ask a resident, whether the car we can leave for a week and where he thinks we can camp. Behind several large wood pile in a meadow we can build up in the gloom of the tent without disturbing anyone
Total time: 6h
altitude: On 1368hm;. From pack 188hm
After a breakfast of cereal and yogurt in the car, the backpacks, we (wow, the light weight compared to Iceland) and make our way up the road.
The sun shines, The sky is beautiful blue. We decide to take a branch, otherwise a very long time on only one road going up. So we take the "Reflection".
With several stations with benches and wooden figures makes the road very much fun. After ups and downs over 700 steps, we reach the hut Issenanger Alm
Here we enjoy a sandwich and enjoy the sunshine.
Now it is very long and very boring uphill. We pass the Pinnis Alm and Karalm where still a lot of day tourists go. Now we leave the driveway and steep switchbacks, it goes higher and higher and soon we made several meters.
the left of the hawk, we will see the flag waving from the cabin, we have one goal in mind. The road is not very demanding, has steadily rises steeply.
After 6 hours we reach Innsbruck's hut, where We will stay two nights. It is a great but very pretty cottage with warm (!) Of water at the sink. In the evening we spend our time in the cozy and very warm (outside there are now only 2 ° C) guest room.
06:09:10 ascent of Habicht (3277m)
Total time: 6h 15min

Today it should be so: we want to climb the 3277m with his hawk. Already 8:15 clock march we go. A hawk is in dense clouds and fog.
But it then moves on quite quickly and the clouds are only to be laid in the valley. We, however, shows a stunning blue sky and sun. It's quick steep hill, many ropes to secure and a lot of snow. But until now I have no fear and come with climbing, snow and ice fields along well. We meet hikers because the ice on the rock then it is not scary.
But we find a way and climb on. Over a fine line we approach the summit. After the pre-peak, it goes down again a little. Then again steitg up and eventually secured with wire cables into a steep Gekletter really high again and then it stands before us. Ginpelkreuz the
Suddenly us a decent wind whistled around our ears. Oh wonderful, I've made it and not even I was scared. With the support of my dear George, I have my second 3000th successfully climbed.
Below the steep climbing piece, we look for a wind-sheltered spot and take a lunch break. Then we rise slowly but surely down again.
We cut back neatly across a huge field of snow from, we just do not want again to climb the summit. On a plateau, we do it again and can catch even examine the first part of tomorrow's route.
As we reach quite early in the evening the hut again, we decide to try the nearby training climbing. So climbing gear and head downhill. After the first stirrup at the start, for me first go no further. Somehow, the then still quite a lot for a day ... for my nerves. I first sit down again and go in me. George is the first alone and then climbing then told me how easy he is. So new trial. And I can do it =)!
It is a good climbing, with very grippy limestone and lots of good backups, and handles. I am happy that I made it, and made me even more have been overcome. What a fabulous and successful day!

Again, we create the clock 8:15 departure for Bremer hut. We are told that this would be the longest stage of the high walk, so we do not waste time.
The weather is cloudy, but dry and quite mild. Quickly we're at the top of the 4 of us expected gaps. On the way to the first saddle, we finally see one: a really true Capricorn. All of sovereign he sits a whole lot about us and digested his breakfast in peace. We can take photos or film, without that it can interfere.
goes after the first saddle, up and down always there's plenty of meadows, rocks and scree. In a short time we are in the second gap and can already see the hut. The path through the next valley drags on very long and occasionally we make our lunch break.
Until then, we have already 14 hikers obsolete. Somehow we seem to be much faster and fitter than last year ... I'm glad. Also, my knee makes this year, no problems. I wear my good bandages.
last the road to the next notch is evident. Meanwhile, there has unfortunately started to rain. The third saddle, goes by a lot of rock climbing, which is the rain already pretty slippery up. After a leisurely descent through meadows, we reach the turnoff to the via ferrata. From here you can choose between two versions, the shorter and crisper than the climbing we take. From the remark "Only for the experienced," we can not deter us.
At the entry of the ferrata is raining very heavily, so that we do only to the hut. We therefore waive the climbing gear and take a few handles and stirrups Sun
A veritable torrent comes towards us. A little over the smooth and slippery stone slipped and already we reach the hut. The things we all hang in the very good heated drying room and enjoy the evening in the beautifully cozy guest room.

Actually, we have to go now, only the short stage of 3 hours at the Nuremberg hut, but then it comes back a different way than we think. 8:40 we run the clock going from the Bremer hut. Shortly after the cottage, it begins again with rain.
has steadily improved to the old customs house in the simming Jöchl. From here you can now see the Nuremberg cottage already.
it goes down some very steep and long smooth stones, which can easily be a slippery challenge in the wet weather. Once it puts me extremely long and I can see the slope are very close. But George has me fast on the backpack and helps the helpless beetle crawling back on your feet =)!
then am I am happy in my little uncertain steps and several more cable insured real bodies at the Nuremberg hut to arrive, which we already reach clock 12:15.
We strengthen ourselves at our lunch stop and consider whether we go further. the next stage should be only 3 hours. But then the sun came out and we can not help but go further.
The summit cross the next notch is already visible. One hour we climb uphill, a good way, little ropes. Unfortunately, we pick up at the summit cross the fog and the rain again.
The descent is cozy, our left runs a glacier tongue of the glacier and flows down Sulzenau Grünausee in the beautiful, which shines in stunning blue. We walk to the old glacial moraines along.
The way no extreme demands more effort from us, we enjoy the way, make us much time. About 20 minutes before the start hut, unfortunately, back to rain heavily.
after just 2h 45min we reach the hut Sulzenau and I'm glad we made the double tour today and tomorrow only now still have the short leg on Dresdner hut in front of us.

snow, it snowed overnight. It's all white. On the slopes you can see the beautiful snow line. Far back in the valley it breaks even and the sun is visible. Wow, what can be a sight.
We pack a lot of time today at breakfast and before us is a quiet day. Only 9 am we started running.
We enjoy the climb in snow and sun and remain frequently stand and enjoy the view. After a full hour, we reach the Peiljoch, where we expect a lot of stone men.
Now is downhill to the hut. Opens up a wide valley full of ski lifts. A ski resort with two gondolas from the valley up and right next to the hut. Oh dear, not very nice. Fortunately, summer and only at the top of the glacier are two lifts in operation.
On the other side of the Peiljoches Thawed snow is already bad on freeze, so that now it is again very smooth.
We go very slowly and make even after the steepest part of lunch. Unfortunately, the clouds take back too much. At the hut, the objective point of this holiday, we are already waiting for waving of a hiking friend from Mainz. Due to the snowfall the previous night, he must also insert first a stop at the Dresdner hut.
the afternoon and evening is spent chatting with social events and in the hut.
