Route

As a first ascensionist, you are never completely objective about your own climbs. But the rock quality is really very good and the climbing is also very varied. In my opinion, Trog mi Wind on the Floitenturm right next to the alla Große Speckkarplatte offers a lot of variety despite its brevity. I personally find the last pitch particularly beautiful. Everything just fits into place here.

Getting there

From Innsbruck drive to Hall in Tirol.

Access

Two options.
A. Drive through the Halltall (4€ toll) and over Lafatscher Joch towards the Hallerangerhaus, circa 2 hours. Fit cyclists can cycle to just beneath the col. This doesn't reduce the walk-in much, but during the (very demanding) descent one saves 45 minutes.
B. Cycle from Scharnitz (6€ parking) over the Hinterautal, past the Kastenalm to the Hallerangerhaus. Most push their bikes along the steep ascent to the Kastenalm. Although this approach is longer (at least 2.5 hours), the return is simple and takes circa 45 - 60 minutes.
The Große Speckkarplatte can be seen east of the Hallerangerhaus mountain hut and is reached in circa 15 minutes.
