Route description
Starting point: Timmelsbrücke brdige at 1,765 m
By car from Moos/Moso towards the Timmelsjoch Mountain Pass until Timmelsbrücke bridge (in winter the road up to this point is free from snow). Following the track up to the Timmelsalm mountain hut (at 1,990 m), proceed along the right side of the valley towards Wandspitze mountain. After about an hour's walk there’s a hill, with the valley opening out below with a wonderful view of the snowed-up river winding its way in serpentine fashion. From the hill descend to the left until reaching a cross and a shepherd's hut, an ideal place for a break and for enjoying the view.
Descent: In good weather conditions the normal return route follows trail no. 30, on the eastern slope back to the Tumolo hut.
ATTENTION: Always be informed about snow conditions and avalanche risk before setting off.
