Seven Summits – 7 mountains with character

Size appears in various ways. The Seven Summits of Stubai are not just interesting because of their heights, but actually also because of what these mountains signify to people. These seven peaks create a remarkable impression, tell a unique story and significantly characterize the landscape.

 

The Zuckerhütl (3,507 m) with its year-round white snowy cap, the diverse Wilde Freiger (3,418 m), the Habicht (3,277 m), which was thought to be the highest mountain in Tyrol for a long time, the Rinnenspitze (3,003 m), which is the easiest of the three-thousand meter peaks to climb, the striking Serles (2,717 m), which was referred to by Goethe as the "High altar of Tyrol", the Hohe Burgstall (2,611 m), which is straightforward but particularly rewarding due to its panoramic views, and the Elfer (2,505 m), the local mountain of Neustift, together form the Seven Summits of the Stubai valley. You also have the possibility of marking your successful summit victories with a certificate in the form of the "Gipfelpass" (can be found in the tourism offices). This makes the distinction of the number of summits you have conquered.

Closer than ever to the heavens – Mountaineering on the Stubai Hohenweg

8,000 meters of altitude, 100 kilometres, 8 alpine huts - and all this in just the one valley: the Stubai Hohenweg is one of the most beautiful high altitude hiking routes in the Alps, leading through the Stubai Alps across seven different stages (hiking time between 3 - 7 hours). There is the option of descending into the valley at each alpine hut and conversely, the option of ascending from the valley. The long-distance trail can be covered in stages as a result. Please note that the Stubai Hohenweg is a black mountain trail and leads exclusively through alpine terrain! Surefootedness, an appropriate basic level of fitness, a head for heights and the right equipment are basic requirements here.
