Parking area near Hotel Steingletscher used for overnight stays before hiking or ski touring to the Steingletscher and its lake. Payment (around 26 CHF, sometimes 5 CHF/4€ for the road/parking) is settled at the restaurant; off-season it may be free. No facilities on site, but a welcoming restaurant sits right next to the parking. Overnighting is tolerated by the owner if you ask first, and visitors are expected to buy something.

Wonderful place to spend a night before ski touring the next morning. In the off-season, we did not need to pay for the pitch. Excellent restaurant next door and friendly owner!Translating
Absolutely fantastic, welcoming and warm, with the possibility of eating at the restaurant and a pitch beside a small lake.Translating

All parking spaces around this 180-degree bend, on both the left and right, belong to Hotel Steingletscher. Anyone parking here should also purchase something. The owner tolerates sleeping in a camper, but out of respect, arrange it with him. The CHF 5 mentioned in the comment below is the fee for driving on the road and parking toward the Umpol car park; it goes into the KWO collection box.Translating
