Description

1st day: from the village of Randa (1,439 m), follow the summer path to Domhutte (blue signs).

Above 2,500 metres, the path climbs through rocky jumps, often on via ferrata (fixed ropes and taprods, 400 metres), before reaching the refuge near the Festigletscher. Day 2: Climb the moraine behind the refuge in an easterly direction (path and men) and, as soon as possible, move to the glacier that you follow on the orographic right, until you reach the Festijoch (3,723 m).

Once the skis have been taken off, with the help of a few fixed ropes, reach the pass and descend on the opposite side (possible double rope on a spike to overcome the terminal crevasse).

Slightly downhill, cross the Hohberggletscher in a northeasterly direction, passing under the imposing evening events that, in this section, loom over the route.

Climb up the glacier in an easterly direction, up to about 4,100 meters, just below the Lenzjoch.

Then turn south and climb the northern slope of the mountain on steep slopes that, with sustained slopes, lead to the cross of the peak (maximum gradient 40°).<br/><br/>_This Adventure has been shared under the [Creative Commons Share Alike](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.5/) licence._
