Route Character

The Lyngen Starter tour with a great view of the Lyngenfjord.

Starting Point & Village

Starting point: Starting point is the hiking car park in Eidebakken on the south-western edge of Lyngseidet. Village: Lyngseidet

Ascent & Route

From the hiking car park follow the signs to Skihytta. The trail is marked with small reflectors to the hut. From the hut you continue to climb towards S-W towards the well visible summit. At about 700m the steep ascent (>30°) to the summit ridge begins, which is followed southwards to the summit. On the summit ridge you have to pay attention to cornices - mostly on the east side.

Descent & Variants

Option 1: Along the ascent path over the summit ridge.

Option 2: Direct descent on the eastern slope of the summit until the terrain flattens out a little (approx. 800m) here you head northwards towards the ascent path and follow it into the valley.

Map Explanation

  • Slope inclinations are a very important criterion in avalanche risk management. However, slope inclination alone should never be the sole criterion!
  • The resolution for Austria and South Tyrol is based on a digital terrain model (DTM) with 10m resolution. Outside these areas, accuracy is significantly lower.
  • A map can only ever provide a limited view of real conditions.
