Hut hike

Summit hike

This challenging hike begins with a ride on the funicular of the Bergbahnen Rosshütte to Seefelder Joch at 2,064 meters. The actual hike covers nearly five kilometers and 500 meters of elevation gain. Along the way, you will summit the Seefelder Spitze (2,220 m) and Reither Spitze (2,373 m). After about three hours of hiking, you will reach the Nördlinger Hütte at 2,230 meters. The descent takes about an hour to reach the Härmelekopfbahn mountain station, where you can conveniently take the cable car back to the valley.

For those seeking more adventure, you can opt for the Panorama via ferrata from the middle station to the Seefelder Spitze on the way up. On the way down, instead of taking the cable car, you can choose the two-hour hiking trail from Härmelekopf back down, with a possible stop at
