Kürsinger Hütte is a huge, yet charming hut at the end of the Sulzbachtal valley in the mountain village of Venedigergruppe in Hohe Tauern NP. Excellent for glacier tours around. The disadvantage is very long access to the hut, in the spring time can be used taxi and the conclusion of the exit to facilitate by carrying the backpack by luggage lift. Start for skitour on Grossvenediger, Keeskogel, Schlieferspitze and Grosser Geiger.

Westliche Simonyspitze is a great alpine ski tour with a view of the Dreiherrnspitze. First, it rises to Reggentörl. Short downhill and follow the Umbalkees Glacier up. The ascent to the top is usually without skis. Downhill is great especially for firn.

The Dreiherrnspitze is a spectacular, complex and challenging glacier ski tour. Especially difficult is its length, glacial cracks and terrain break at the end. First, it is easy to climb glacier the Südl. Malhamkees to Regentörl saddle. After a short downhill northwards to the Umbalkees Glacier, the traverse between the cracks and then to the Althauskees. Relatively steep slope to difficult terrain break (depending on snow conditions). After overcoming it, there is only 200 high meters in easy terrain. Downhill same track as ascent.

Favorite ski tour from Essener-Rostocker Hütte. Climbing the Grosser Geiger from the south leads along the Maurerkees glacier. At 2650 meters, the route turns north-westward and heads a rather steep slope towards the flat upper glacier. There is skidepo under the top pyramid. On the top of the undemanding terrain in crampons and ice axe. Follow the same route to hut.

Ruderhofspitze je velkolepá túra širokým jižním svahem, až poslední desítky metrů se musí jít bez lyží. Sjezd po trase výstupu je víceméně příjemného sklonu, většinou mezi 20-25 stupni a hlavně na jarním firnu to je velkolepé svezení.

Hintere Schwärze je vrchol, schovaný trošku stranou. Patří mezi top10 nejvyšších hor Rakouska. Po sjezdu od chaty se trasa stáčí doprava na ledovec Marzellferner. Po ledovci mírně nahoru. Následuje prudší svah k závěrečnému výšvihu. Od skidepa v mačkách a s cepínem na vrchol, jednoduchým terénem.
