Hut hike

The ultimate panoramic hike: Stage 2 of the Leutasch family long-distance hike is a breathtaking alpine promenade. Mountain peaks and stunning views accompany you on your way to Rotmoosalm.

By the start of Day 2, you’ll understand why a multi-day hike is so special. Few things are better than a hearty breakfast on the sun terrace of an alpine hut. Paired with the unique morning atmosphere in the mountains and a dreamlike view, the sense of happiness isn’t just for the kids. Rested and energized, you’ll begin the last significant ascent of the hike.

In total, there are 400 meters of elevation gain to conquer, but after the climb through the Scharnitztal to the “Südwandsteig”, the challenge feels much easier. What follows is probably the gentlest rollercoaster ride in the world, with a steady up and down. There’s plenty of time to take in the landscape and observe nature in detail. The towering limestone walls of the Dreitorspitze inspire awe, while the scattered boulders along the path silently invite children to climb on them.

The classic climbing walls of the Wetterstein – Schüsselkarspitze, Hochwanner, and others – stand tall like a grand backdrop, but even families can
