The circular route across the alpine pastures is wonderful in both winter and summer. Especially when you then stop at the Albert-Link Hütte.

The original Valepp Alm was built in 1739. The current houses were probably built between 18:00 and 18:50. Today, they are listed buildings. In 1919, it became the first ski base for the German Alpine Club (DAV). In 1939, a mountain hut, the Albert Link Hut, was built nearby. It was named after the then head of the DAV ski section.

If you drive up Spitzingstraße, the first thing you'll reach is the Spitzingsattel parking lot. It's on the left side of the road. Take your parking ticket and drive through the barrier. Parking is very limited here, so there are often bottlenecks on peak days. From here, you can head to Brecherspitz, Obere Firstalm, Jägerkamp, and Aiplspitz. * Parking for up to 5 hours costs 8 euros. * Parking for 5-8 hours costs 1 euro per hour. * An additional 8 euros is charged for overnight stays.
