After a good nights sleep at the quiet Pasterzenhaus, an auxiliary building to the Glocknerhaus, we were welcomed by warm sunlight in the morning on the fifth day of our crossing of the alps. About roughly 90 minutes into the tour we reached the Obere Stockerscharte with a perfect view back onto the Glaciers. From there on we saw many marmots on both sides of the hiking path - unfortunately no good photos! - till we reached the Salmhütte. After we refilled our stomachs and continued for a another one and a half hour, we ended the hike in the early afternoon at the Glorer Hütte (2642 metres).

Duration: 4 hours and 15 minutes (excluding some smaller breaks accumulating to 30 minutes and an hour long lunch break at the Salmhütte)
Length: 10.5 km
Elevation: 2000 m to 2665 m
Ascent/Descent: 960 m ↑ and 450 m ↓
