If you come like us at the unserviced time, you have the opportunity to buy drinks from a machine. Highly recommended 👍

Hündeleskopfhütte

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Very nice view and big terrace. The cabin is also very cozy inside. There are daily specials like yesterday "wild garlic dumplings with salad". For cyclists also a tip, as up to the hut a road goes up.

March 13, 2022,Grödeltour zum Gipfel Edelsberg
Start was in Pfronten/Kappel. Past the Hündeleskopfhutte, where the stop was on the way back. Continue to the Kappeler Alp, which was closed until March 17th, 2022 due to Corona. From here it was not so far to the Sportheim Böck. Unfortunately, there was no outdoor gastronomy here. The last stretch to the summit was more difficult. The snow is …

The wish for this hike was to stop at the Hündeleskopfhütte. Unfortunately it was closed and we were on a well-deserved vacation.
The Kappeler Alp is having a "trial run" with the new tenants. Totally crowded. Also because the gondola was running. It was only quiet in the lower area. But it was still beautiful.

With wonderful weather and a day off, an easier tour up the Edelsberg. The start was very early. That's why you can still enjoy peace and quiet and nature at least as far as the mountain station. Then tens of ballerina tourists with handbags 😔

A wonderful Grödel tour on the Edelsberg. There was still good snow from the Kappeler Alp. In the last picture you can see a capercaillie 🤗 if you take a closer look

The tour should turn off at the Alpspitzplatte to the Grundhütte. Unfortunately, no one had ever walked the invisible path before me. It was too risky for me to be a pioneer. So take the same route back again. Still a wonderful tour. I also heard a capercaillie 🤗🌻🐐

We don't need to mention the weather... ☀️ Full.
From the summit, a short round to Alpe Dinserhütte. However, it is only open on weekends.
Visited the great Hündeleskopfalpe. Everything is right here. The landlady is at peace. Colors off well.

The start was in Pfronten/Kappel. Crampons would have been sufficient. But why just do it?😅 We went to the Böck sports center, which was closed. And the Kappeler Alp too.
The winter landscape is always enchanting. There was a special view today, even with the temperatures. The Zugspitze looked close enough to touch. Tobogganers and skiers everywhere. More visitors than …

Sun🌞 was "promised" from around 9 a.m. So we headed up the Edelsberg with confidence. The fog wasn't fazed.

There was snow just beyond the Kappeler Alp. It was good for running.

The white butterbur and primroses are already peeking out. 🌼
