Guided Ascent of the Pflerscher Tribulaun (3,097 m) – Stubai Alps

Adventurous High-Altitude Tour in Remote Alpine Terrain on the Border of South Tyrol and Tyrol

The Pflerscher Tribulaun (3,097 m) is the highest peak in the eastern main ridge of the Stubai Alps, located directly on the border between South Tyrol/Italy and Austria. Surrounded by the Gschnitztal in Tyrol to the north and the Pflerschtal in South Tyrol to the south, this impressive mountain rises from main dolomite and quartz-phyllite rock formations.

Historically significant: As early as 1789 and 1790, the French nobleman and mineralogist Déodat de Dolomieu discovered dolomite rocks in the Pflerschtal, which were later analyzed by Nicolas-Théodore de Saussure and gave the Dolomites their name. Today, signs near the peak commemorate these geological landmarks and highlight the region’s historical importance.

The ascent of the Pflerscher Tribulaun is considered a challenging high-altitude tour and is among the most demanding normal routes in the Stubai Alps. The route traverses remote alpine terrain and offers stunning panoramic views of the surrounding peaks. With an experienced, certified mountain guide, the tour becomes not only safe but an unforgettable experience for skilled mountaineers.

Whether you are an experienced beginner in high-altitude tours or a seasoned alpinist, the Pflerscher Tribulaun offers an intense alpine adventure away from the usual tourist paths.
