  • Difficulty
    PD
  • Ascent
    3:30 h, 770 m

With poor visibility between Oxefeld and the hut, good orientation is required; the hut hardly stands between the large blocks and is often snowed in deeply.

Route description

Fäld - Binntalhütte
From Fäld (P. 1519, car park) cross the bridge to the picturesque village of Fäld (1547 m). A ski piste leads from here to P. 1589. Follow the summer path to P. 1673 at Heiwmeder. Follow the road, or make a short cut across the field to P. 1710, then continue on to the Trogschlüecht, where path flattens out. Always following the road now, head into the valley past Brunnebiel and along to P. 1882 and the small alp at Freichi. From here the wide valley floor become a narrow gorge and its is advantageous to keep following the line of the road up to P. 1952. A signpost steers you over a beautiful bridge to Chiestafel, then eastwards to P. 2096. Bear leftwards (SE) by the striking cairn and signpost across the beautiful plain of Blatt. Pass under the eastern foot of the Ofenhorn's W ridge, and continue over gentle terrain to the hut. The steeper west facing slope north of the hut should be avoided in poor conditions.

Remarks

The route, marked on some old ski tour maps, which followed the summer footpath from Fäld via Figgerscha, Binnultini, Chäller and Furggmatta to Freichi (on the shadowy south of Binntal) should to be avoided as leads over the dangerous avalanche runouts of Chollerhorn and Seewischhorn's northern slopes.
