Description

Increased group to 11: I booked 8 beds, 3 beds booked individually last minute.

Before you join, notice that:

  • This is a multi day hike (3 days, with 2 overnight stays in Hüttes). 
  • This hike requires experience and stamina (7h walking with significant elevation gain/descend every day)
  • You shall have a hiking insurance (DAV membership or other).
  • Plans might change on the go, depending on terrain conditions, weather, how we feel...
  • I booked some beds on a Mehrbettzimmer. If you join you must commit to pay the cost of the Hüttes (or in case you need to drop last minute, the minimum amount as per each Hütte regulation). I might ask you to send reservation via paypal. 
  • If you join and we do not know each other from previous hikes, please send me a private message so that we can talk in more detail about the hike. If I don't hear from you I might free your slot for others who might want to join.

If the above sound good to you, go ahead and read what comes next.

Some details on how I envision the hike (it might well change over time, except that Hütte plan is fixed):

Disclaimer:

I am not a mountain guide, I plan this hike because I want to do it and I open the plan to you.

Each participant is responsible for his/her own safety, brings the right equipment and is prepared for this activity. 

Make yourself familiar with the route and its requirements. Download the map, bring a cell phone and a first aid kit for emergencies.

Please prepare as if you were hiking alone. 

Good to know
  • hiking shoes
  • hiking poles
  • food and drinks (my plan is to eat at the Hüttes, but some snacks are a must)
  • sun glasses + sunscreen
  • waterproof and warm gear
  • Spikes (in case we have to cross some unexpected icy snow paths, who knows)
  • Gaiters
  • first aid kit
  • DAV membership card (or other insurance. DAV is helpful at DAV Hüttes)
  • Hut sleeping bag.
  • Cash (most Hüttes accept cash only).

Hi all, hike is approaching, I hope you are all ready for it! Most of you reached out to me, as requested in the description, and I added you in the wapp group for easier communication. The ones who have not reached out to me, I have sent you private messages asking your confirmation, please respond asap (latest today evening), otherwise I will remove you from the list and allow others from waiting list to join. I will give preference to the ones from waiting list who contacted me (sorry if at the end you cannot join, one option for you would be to check if Hüttes have some available beds, and you will be very welcome to join). See you all in a few days! Cheers, Sepp
