The Claridenhütte is a beautifully located mountain hut below the Gemsfairenstock in the Glarner Alps. Starting point for a ski tour on Clariden or the traverse to the Planura hut. The most advantageous approach is with the support of the cable car via Fisetengrat. It is also possible to climb from Linthal to the hut. The Clariden hut was renovated and expanded in 2013.

After Tödi, Clariden is the second most popular ski tour in the Glarus Alps. The ascent leads along the gentle Claridenfirn glacier from Claridenhütte to the foot of Clariden and then through a wide northeast slope to the top pyramid. Beautiful views of the entire Glarus Alps and the neighboring Uri Alps. Descent copies the ascent track. A popular alternative is to continue crossing the Planura hut after descending the steep slope turn right to Claridenpass.
