Beautiful tour to this remote summit !
Ski Touring Difficult
This route is not difficult, technically and physically. This summit is really remote and worth to go. You first follow the moraine of the glacier and then reach the Vernagtferner. It is then up between rocks and steep slopes to reach the upper part of the glacier which leads to the final ridge. The ridge is never really exposed if you stay on the SW side but requires a good technic with crampons.
Easy and complete summit from the Vernagthütte.
Difficult
Serious gradient of 30-38 degrees where a real risk of slipping exists.
