The tour has quite a long beard already, but winter weather made the awakening from winter hibernation quite painful. So now I really don't know when I'll outpace myself.
On Monday 15 and Tuesday 16.4. Matej and I circled Veliki Klek (Grossglockner) as part of the professional exam. The start from the parking lot at Lucknerhaus was early, yet a crowd of ski tourers surrounded us. We walked among them to Studelhutte, there we turned down from the popular path and climbed to Rosmariewandsattel. From the saddle we skied down to the upper Paterz, climbed to Jochanisberg and descended to the Oberwalder hut. Snow was mostly well skiable, but not top-notch. The sun burned mercilessly all day and provided a good tan.

This year we plan to go up with colleagues! Somewhere I saw that in Austria for harder tours you supposedly need a mandatory guide!? Is that true?? I'm curious how you went up? Alone or with a guide? Which month is best for the ascent?
Thanks in advance for the answers!

A beautiful Thursday morning promised a nice day. I started relatively late at Lucknerhaus; already below at the cargo cableway, I put on my skis and went via shortcuts to the top. The conditions and skiing were excellent for this time.

Congratulations for all steps upwards, as well as turns downwards. I wouldn't manage even in dreams.
Super pictures!

Bravo Igor! Beautiful ascent on a wonderful day!
I'd also ask for some info - are Studlhütte and Erzherzog-Johann-Hütte still closed?
How do you rate avalanche danger? How much settling?
What's the glacier condition?
What's the ridge condition with all that snow?
If weather allows, planning mid-week up there, info would mean a lot.
Cheers!

All huts except Lucknerhaus at the parking lot below are still closed, the top two have winter rooms where overnighting is possible. I had ideal conditions, hard frozen, need to start very early because later it could get quite soft, no beaten tracks, but saw snowshoe prints. On the ridge I had perfect conditions, those who've been up know it's much easier snow-covered than bare.

Did you go along the Studelgrat ridge?

No Bojan. I think it's clear from the pictures

Maybe someone knows how it is with the ramp on GGHA Strasse in recent years? Is it raised or lowered and locked outside of "working hours"?

Tuesday 30.07.2013 after work we set off from Ljubljana: Helena, Aleš, Dario and Gregor. Parking at Lucknerhaus and quick path to Stüdlhütte, where excellent dinner followed (recommend!). Across Teischnitzkees glacier roped up as four, then on the ridge roped up as two. The ridge path is entirely dry. Followed descent over Kleineglockner (recommend crampons on as soon as you descend to the saddle), past Erzherzog-Johann-hütte and on across Ködnitzkees glacier to the valley.

On Grossglockner as described by Gric 5.8. nothing new, just that the snowfield under the little Klek saddle is much shorter than his picture shows, but crampons still highly recommended. We two started at 3am by bike from parking at Luckner hut, to upper hut (further bike riding forbidden). From Studl hut over glacier didn't use crampons, although most did. On Studlgrat ridge progressed relatively fast, as we belayed only on slab (III+). Descent by normal route, past Johan hut to Studl hut on snow real pleasure. Then descent to bikes, one beer in hut, then to car and looong way dragging on asphalt home. One-day tour quite strenuous, but when all ends well, you say that's it, nice, and thoughts already drifting elsewhere. Where-when?, hope as soon as possible.
Best regards Matjaž

Wednesday afternoon we drove to Kals, start Lucknerhaus (1918m) and skied to Studlhütte (2802m) by evening. Slept in excellently stocked hut (sleep for club members 12€, full half-board/top service ca 45€). Can reach here without skis too.
Thursday morning we continued further on route no.5 (see last pic from leaflet) exiting right under Adlersruhe.
The better ones did it left too (avoiding ridge under Adlersruhe), up and down.
Note that from here to ridge under Adlersruhe not recommended without skis or crampons, as it sinks knee-deep.
Path to little GG is icy so only possible up with crampons. Climbing part (no fixed rope!!!) actually only last 50m before summit.
If no crowd, nothing dangerous. But if some parties rush up, others down (no traffic light) it becomes quite chaotic and belaying is mandatory, as someone might accidentally kick you down the slope.
Morning temperature about -12 and gusty at times. Fingers hard as plastic. Otherwise blue skies all day. Morning snow very dry and wind-blown around, afternoon already crusty so no longer that highly desired powder.
Descent not on same path (past Studlhütte hut) but more to the right (looking down towards Kals) somehow under the cargo cableway from Lucknerhütte to Erzherzog-Johann-Hütte.
Little snow below Lucknerhütte but walk to parking at Lucknerhaus only 5 min.]]>
