Middle Guslarspitze - from Hochjoch Hospice

From Vent on the wonderful hiking path and over the suspension bridge to the Rofen farms, from there over the Rofen meadows to the valley station of the material cable car of the Vernagthütte, from there further through the impressive gorge on a moderately ascending path to the Hochjoch Hospice. From the hut further towards the Brandenburger House, after about 1 hour the path branches off towards the Guslarspitze. Continue on soft grassy ground, finally over rocky terrain to the summit. You can expect a wonderful panoramic view and a beautiful summit cross with an edelweiss. Return via the Vernagthütte.

Appropriate equipment such as breathable and weather-appropriate outdoor clothing, ankle-high hiking boots, wind, rain and sun protection, hat, possibly gloves, is required for all hikes and routes. Bringing a first aid kit, a mobile phone, and possibly a hiking map, as well as sufficient provisions for hikes without rest options, is necessary.
