Lusen Shelter

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Quaint and cozy hut. The menu and drinks menu is designed so that everyone can find something. It is definitely worth stopping at after climbing the summit and enjoying the beautiful view.

Lusen Summit

Highlight • Summit

Many myths and legends entwine around the third highest mountain in the Bavarian Forest National Park - the Lusen (1,373 meters). The devil himself is said to have played a role in the creation of this popular excursion mountain ...

The granite dome on the summit (one of the 100 most beautiful geotopes in Bavaria) and the breathtaking view of the Bavarian Forest, on a clear day even as far as the Alpine ridge, are impressive.

The summit of the Lusens can be reached via well-developed hiking trails in summer and winter. On the ascent you can discover such mystical and beautiful places as the Teufelsloch, the Martinsklause, the Himmelsleiter or the fascinating Glass Arche.
