Teplitzerhütte - Rifugio Vedretta Pendente
The place
Staffed alpine hut at 2586 m in the Ridnauntal (Val Ridanna, municipality of Racines / Ratschings, South Tyrol), on a rocky terrace south of the Hängender Ferner (Vedretta Pendente) in the Stubai Alps. Exceptional panoramic position, a classic base for glacier climbs to the Sonklarspitze (3471 m) and the Botzer (3251 m). Approach from the head of the Ridanna valley and the mining museum: follow trail no. 9 through the forest and along the Fernerbach (moderately steep) to the Aglsboden, then a steeper climb to the Grohmannhütte (2254 m) and a steep final stretch to the Teplitzer Hütte. Scenic route passing the rustic Aglsbodenalm and the upper Aglsfalls waterfalls in the Egatal gorge. Contact info@teplitzerhuette.com, +43 699 10321999.
