Ladders on the Weißsee Loop Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

The adventurous feeling of this route can be enjoyed both on the walk around the reservoir (Weißsee), but also on the way to the glacier or the Hochfürleggspitze!

We met everyone from young families with babies to experienced hikers!

The rocky landscape with streams running through it is indescribable! I imagine it would be very beautiful in autumn too!

Rudolfshütte Mountain Hotel

Highlight • Mountain Hut

In the self-service restaurant you will find everything for the small (and bigger) hunger or the coffee break! The cable car ran from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. in September. You make a stop to change at Grünsee.

Wanderlust can move in an incredible number of directions up here. If you want, you can conquer your first 3,000 meter peaks or swim bravely in the glacier water. Highly recommended!
