Description

From the Swiss side, the Great Druze Tower is a pure climbing peak with an impressive south face of almost 500 m height. From the north, however, the summit can also be reached by skis through the Sporertobel (30 - 35° at 300 hm), provided safe conditions are available. The route leads from St. Antönien Rüti (1460 m above sea level) via Partnun up to the Carschinahütte SAC (2230 m above sea level). From the Carschinafurgga you cross the N-slopes of the Zypärliberg to the Drusator (2341 m above sea level). After a short descent past the Zollhütte to point 2170, you climb in a westerly direction into the Sporasattel (about 2450 m above sea level), south of the Sporatherm. Through the Sporertobel (30 - 35 ° at 300 m above sea level) up, past the Middle Tower (2782 m above sea level), to the summit of the Great Tower (2830 m above sea level). The Large, Middle and Small Druze Tower are summarized on the map under the term "Dri Tower". The descent takes place in the area of the ascent track or alternatively via the Lindauerhütten to Tschagguns (A).
