Description

The highest peak of the Zillertaler Alps, the Hochfeiler! Magnificent views from the summit, a very alpine environment reachable by comfortable trails for 99% of the way. Final section is a snow ridge, be careful here. Start and finish is the parking. The route is well indicated by signs. You can skip the detour to the hut, shaving about 5 minutes off your time.

I think that this route should be renamed to simply "Hochfeiler", or maybe "Hochfeiler / Gran Pilastro".

The reason is that this route is entirely in Italy, and only the summit is on the border with Austria.
