Alpine Tour to the Weißspitze peak - Description

The hike to the Weißspitze peak is a challenging high-altitude tour offering wonderful panoramic views of the mountains around Vipiteno/Sterzing.

To the east are the Zillertal Alps and the Pfitschtal valley, to the south-west the glistening Sarntal Alps and the green meadows of the Vipiteno valley basin, while the northern horizon is dominated by the Tribulaun and the Weißwandspitze peaks at the end of the Pflerschtal valley.{
