Ascent to Mönchsjochhütte

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

At first, a hike to the Mönchsjochhütte does not seem too difficult. But with the thin air up here, it is quite tedious, the specified walking time of 45 min. observed. Nevertheless, highly recommended 👍🏼

Short, very strenuous tour, because the air was really thin for a lowland Tyrolean 🤪.

Nice walk , your impressive view . To the hut it is up, take 1hr with some stops . Back you need 30 min . Nice hut
* phew * that was pretty difficult at 3,500m 😅 & still beautiful 🤩

However, the displayed time is not correct for the outward and return journey. We needed about 1.40 hours.

3,600 m altitude, hardly any air to breathe when hiking but sensational views.
Warm greetings!
