Hiking
The Jam is one of the most beautiful high valleys in the Paznaun Alps. It stretches from Galtür towards the south up into the glacier world, which is always visible at the beginning of the side valley. Starting from the Galtür village square, the hiking trail leads past the Menta Alm (1,657 meters) and the Scheibenalm (1,833 meters).
After about three hours of walking, the Jamtalhütte at 2,165 meters becomes visible and offers a breathtaking panorama of the huge Jamtal glacier with the front and rear Jamspitze. Especially at the end of June/beginning of July, the blooming alpine roses create an additional impressive hiking backdrop.
The Jamtalhütte is surrounded by the highest peaks of the Silvretta, such as Fluchthorn, Jamspitzen and Dreiländerspitze, to name just three of the numerous two and three thousand meter peaks. They form the peaks of a crowning landscape, in the center of which the hut is located.
Because of the large glacier areas, this area of the Silvretta is also called the "blue Silvretta". Since the side valleys lead to the hut in a star shape, the Jamtalhütte offers a wide range of tours and hiking options on rock and ice of all levels of difficulty, in summer and winter. The area is not only suitable for tours for adults, it is also an ideal hiking area for families with children. Particular attention is drawn to the practice opportunities in the climbing gardens in and around the hut.
Our recommendation: Climb further up to the glacier (komoot.de/highlight/250387) or explore the climbing arena (komoot.de/highlight/250392) above the hut - either climb here yourself or simply watch the other climbers do it.
