Arrival to Dürrboden in the Dischmatal (2007 m) or on the Flüelapass (2263 m), followed by the ascent to the Grialetsch hut SAC (2542 m). The hike takes about 2 to 2.5 hours.
You can start the Kesch Trek either from Dürrboden or the Flüelapass. We recommend that you use public transport to the starting point. Timetables can be found on the internet or at Bergün Filisur Tourismus. Your first destination is the Grialetsch hut SAC, where you will spend the night.
Whole tour: Kesch-Trek
Stage 2: Grialetsch hut SAC - Kesch hut SAC
Author’s recommendation
Do you fancy a detour with a fantastic view on your way to the Grialetsch Hut? The Flüela Schwarzhorn (3147 m above sea level) is a three-thousand meter high mountain easy climb (white-red-white marked access), whereby you have to add 3-4 hours in addition to the hiking time. In good weather, the view extends from Grossglockner to Mont Blanc.
Safety information
The Kesch Trek is an alpine mountain hike. The potential dangers in the high mountains must be correctly assessed. The hiking stages require a good condition.
Equipment
Good mountain boots, weatherproof and warm clothing, rain protection, food for the hiking stages (packed lunches can also be obtained in the huts), enough water, sun and head protection, medicine chest, maps for orientation and hiking poles.
