Uphill

From the Franz Senn Hut (2147m) ski uphill along Alpeiner Bach (to the SW). Reach Alpeiner Ferner (glacier). At 2700m turn right SW and start ascending ; keep to the right SE of the Verborgener-Berg Ferner. Mount onto the glacier from a saddle at 2900m. Ascent to Turmscharte (3100m) on the rocky ridge which surrounds the glacier on its north - there you will find a fixed rope - climb up a steep slope (approx. 20 m) to reach the top of the col. Then continue on Berglasferner NE to reach the summit Wildes Hinterbergl (3288m)

Downhill

Several ways back down:
* easiest: same as ascent * hardest and most exposed to crevasses: via Berglasferner - abseiling and ascent on rope obligatory! * moderate: (good visibility essential!!) ski back to Turmscharte - then head east on Turmferner (crevasses clearly visible) - ski downb versus point 2892m in the SE (right corner when looking down) of the glacier (further left there are huge serac) - find you way down in between the rocks and find poles on the right hand side which show you the way through a small rather steep (40 degree) couloir - ski down NE along the Moraine (mind your skis! there are some rocks when there is little snow) until you reach the Alpeiner Bach which leads back to the Franz-Senn Hütte.
