Beautiful transition with fantastic views.

Coming from the south (Dresdner Hütte), this is an easy hike that winds its way up to approximately 2,700 m. A short climb then leads to the col. To the north, to the Regensburger Hütte, a steep descent with wire ropes and remnants of old snow—certainly a must. Then the endless (4 km) trailless route through scree and rubble to the hut.

The Neue Regensburger Hütte side is significantly steeper and more challenging than the Dresdner Hütte side. The snow also lingers on the shady side for a very long time. We descended toward the Neue Regensburger Hütte at the beginning of September, when it had snowed the day before. It wasn't as thrilling, but it was manageable slowly and with careful steps. Based on our experience, I would recommend going from the Neue Regensburger Hütte toward the Dresdner Hütte, as the ascent up the steep section is, in my opinion, easier than the descent in the opposite direction.
