Schartenschartl - Dolomiten hut
Route Character
Great tour, it seems if you are touring in high alpine area. You ascent through the Schartenschartl with a section of around 40°. The Descent is through the “Steinkar” exposition North, beginning with a gully of about 45° Experience in steep riding and with Ice Axe and crampons are highly recommended for this route. If you enter the gully using the fixed rope you should be really safe walking in high alpine areas.

If you go on to the Schartenschartl you just go on to the East, ascending till you see the Schartenschartl. Than you head on up North ascending the South South-East oriented gully, till you reach the ridge.
Descent & Variants
From the ridge of Schartenschartl you can get the fixed rope to enter the Steinkar. The descent follows the terrain to the edge of the forest. From here again caution and good riding skills are required because there are some rock cliffs. Through the forest you ride to a forest road wich leads you directly to the toboggan run (Can be good to change into hike mode again). At the toboggan run you have three possibilities, you ride the toboggan run, you get up to the slope beside and ride the slope or you hike up again (approx. 400 vertical meters) to the Dolomiten Hut.

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.
