Guided Hike to the Summit of Telfer Weißen (2,588 m)
From the parking lot in the village Obertelfes (1,300 m), follow trail no. 5 to the Freundalm alpine hut (1,735 m). Continue along trail no. 5 and then switch to trail no. 6, which becomes steeper, leading to the Ochsenscharte. From there, trail no. 23 takes you across rocky terrain to a ridge, where a short chimney section with a rope-assisted passage (note: this is not a via ferrata) brings you to the summit of Telfer Weißen (2,588 m). From the top, you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the Ridnauntal Valley and the surrounding mountain ranges.
The return route mostly follows the same path, with a short detour to the Ochsenalm and Kuhalm alpine huts, where you’ll find opportunities to stop for food and rest. Trails 5B and 5 then lead back to the parking lot.
• Elevation gain: 1,300 m
• Distance: 7 km
• Refreshment stops: Freundalm, Ochsenalm, Kuhalm alpine huts
• Minimum age: 12 years
• Difficulty level: demanding
