Ascent to the hut: a sporty four hours
And then: plenty of options. Whether it's rowdy descents (Telligrad, Stegenhorn or Pizzo Lucendro), challenging alpine summit destinations (Pizzo Rotondo, Pizzo Pesciorra, Pizzo Lucendro), simply leisurely ski touring with fantastic summit views (Leckihorn, Mutterhörner and many more) or as a base for a multi-day tour? The Rotondo hut offers countless possibilities for anyone who is prepared to walk a few hours to escape the hustle and bustle of the urban world. The hut itself is located at 2570 metres, with the surrounding peaks rising between 2700 and 3200 metres into the sky. The backdrop of the Witenwasserental valley invites you to dream as you approach the hut, even if the path seems endless in places. After every bend or climb, you hope to reach the warming hut. Fortunately, it is usually open even in winter. And while the hut host Christoph gives you the latest insider tips for planning your tour, Evi is waiting with a hearty snack.
No matter what your requirements?
you climb up to the Rotondo hut, the potential is there to satisfy them all.
