In June, when we passed here, no problem crossing the stream. Nice place to take off your shoes and cool your feet

Brunnenkopf Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Very rustic mountain hut, lovingly run. 30 beds in the dormitory, toilet and washing facilities with cold water outside the hut, which is not a problem, but what hikers should know.

Laubeneck

Highlight • Summit

The Laubeneck is - contrary to its neighboring summit the Teufelstättkopf - a rather quiet summit, of which one rarely hears something. But he also has his charm. Alone the …

At the beginning of May there is still snow here and the paths are very muddy and slippery.

The August Schuster House, or "Pürschlinghaus", is located on the ridge of the same name at an altitude of 1,564 meters. The hut is open all year round, with the exception of April and November.

A very long but also highly recommended hike over 5 peaks. Although the Pürschling disappointed me a bit. The other four were already staged better. If you want to walk 5km less, you just have to pay the 3 euro parking fee. I preferred to invest the money in an isotonic cold drink.

Tour on rustic paths and climbs to the Hennenkopf, then on to the Teufelstättkopf (lots going on there) and to the August-Schuster-Hütte (unfortunately it was closed and the fridge was already empty).

Nice circular tour to 3 peaks. It takes a while in places, but the view is beautiful. In summer, the paths can be a bit overgrown, as they are very narrow along the ridge and the grass grows high all around. But that wasn't an issue for us at the end of October.

Sure-footedness and a head for heights are prerequisites!

Unfortunately, the images are all mixed up again. Komoot really needs to fix this so that you can reposition the images afterwards. 🫠
