Ridgehouse terrace

The route

From the terrace, follow the signed path into the larch forest. After about forty minutes the trees open up and you climb a broad, grassy ridge to the Saddle. From there the Ridgehouse roof is a small red spot far below you.

Bring water and a windproof layer. The ridge can be breezy even in July. Back at the hut, the kitchen is open until 8 pm, so there is no need to hurry on the way down.

Hungry after the climb?

Tables fill up fast on sunny weekends. Reserve yours and we will keep the stove warm.
