The views are outstanding and from most of them you can ski from the very summit.
The Ortler Circuit is a celebration of Alpine ski mountaineering. Combine the best of the classic ski tours in the Alps and what you basically come up with is the Ortler Circuit. Want the point to point feel and changing terrain of a high mountain ski traverse? The Ortler Circuit has it. Seek the flexibility of a basecamp that allows you to maximize vertical descents, carry the lightest packs possible, and find the goods wherever they may be? The Ortler. Want to enjoy a higher level of hut comfort at a fraction of the cost, complete with showers, smaller private rooms, four-course Italian meals and cappuccinos on tap? You guessed it… Ortler. Located in an amazing and more remote region of the Alps near the Italian-Swiss-Austrian border, few Americans have heard of it, but it is our favorite hut to hut ski tour in the Alps for maximizing the overall fun factor. The views are outstanding and from most of them you can ski from the very summit. After a trip to the Ortler, you won’t look at ski mountaineering quite the same ever again. Viva Italia!
