Discovering Oberer Weisszintscharte

Oberer Weißzintscharte, located at an elevation of 3183 meters in the Zillertal Alps, is one of the most spectacular and remote mountain passes in South Tyrol, surrounded by a pristine glacial landscape. This alpine pass connects the valleys around the Neves Reservoir and serves as a strategic point for mountaineers heading toward iconic peaks such as the Hoher Weißzint (3371 m) and the Hochfeiler (3509 m), the highest summit in the region.


The pass is accessible via high-altitude routes starting from the modern Edelrauthütte (Rifugio Ponte di Ghiaccio), a key base for experienced hikers and climbers. Trails crossing the Oberer Weißzintscharte are classified as hochtouren (high alpine routes), featuring glacier crossings and rocky ridges, perfect for those seeking a raw and authentic mountain experience far from the crowds.


Culturally, the area is deeply tied to South Tyrol’s mountaineering heritage. The Edelrauthütte, completely rebuilt in recent years, replaces the historic refuge that welcomed generations of adventurers. The pass is also part of the Pfunderer Höhenweg (High Route of Fundres), a multi-day trek through untouched alpine landscapes that preserves the charm of the lesser-known Dolomites.


Oberer Weißzintscharte is a must-visit for those who want to experience the mountains in their purest form—amid glaciers, silence, and breathtaking views. A destination where nature reigns and adventure take centre stage.
