Furgler
seen from the cableway station Lazid, 2346m.
The cableway starts from the village Serfaus, south of
Landeck in Tyrolia.

Maria
on the way up. We choose
to climb the path from southwest. |
The
path rises steeper towards the lake Tieftalsee.

Pause
on a beautiful spot by Tieftalsee, just below 2800m. |
The path goes around the lake, before
climbing towards the summit. This part is relatively steep, but it's
possible to walk normally almost all the way.
|
The
views from Furgler are
magnificent. Here is a look to the north, towards Lechtaler alpen.

The summit cross on Furgler, 3004m. |
Jorma writes in the summit book. |
The
descent to the northeast is steeper, and demands some scambling. But
it's a very nice path to walk.

|
|
|
A bit further
down there is a
shorter steep passage,
secured with a rope. |
After a
while we are down to the saddlepoint Furglerjoch,
at 2748m. From here and down te path is easy.

At the
second lake of today, Furglersee. Ötztaler alpen in the background.

The first nice meeting of today. A
small
marmot peekes at
us, wondering when we will leave so he can be left alone. |
The
second nice meeting of today, this time with an Alpine Apollo. A very
beautiful (and protected) butterfly.
