Grosser Geiger is a challenging skiing on the glacier terrain of the Alpine Mountains of Venedigergruppe. It is available from Kürsinger Hütte on the north-facing slopes and from the Essener-Rostocker Hütte on the southern slopes. The most difficult part of the exit is to overcome the steep height on the main ridge.

 

The relatively demanding glacier tour of the Schlieferspitze. For a stay at the Kürsinger Hütte, it is perfect for the last day. After leaving, take the eastern slope down the Sulzbachtal valley to the parking lot. It's actually the only way to get out of bed at Postalm.

If you do not have a day of nice weather, the Kürsinger Hütte offers a climbing wall, where you can rehearse the body, as well as rescue from the ice crack...
