Fronbaum Shelter

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The interior of the shelter is wonderfully clean (swept): A broom helps with cleaning the shelter after each use! Great!

CURRENTLY (as of Sept. 2025) there are even TWO brooms here!

September 1, 2021,St. Martin - Quellenwanderweg mit Doris am 01.09.2021

Quiet hiking trail away from the hustle and bustle, past four springs and the rustic "Vier Buchen" refuge in Kleyental. Our hike was a little further than the original hike, as the entry point was a bit ambiguous for us and some off-grid routes are included. We particularly liked the peace and quiet and the many beautiful sections of the …

Apart from 2 km of very beautiful paths as can be seen in the pictures, the rest was completely boring (forest highway), and also extremely ascending to the end point. The tour was endlessly drawn out 😏

"Happiness is the only thing that doubles when you share it."
And I had such a lovely time in the forest this afternoon. I set off with 7 degrees Celsius (44 degrees Fahrenheit). I had reversed my planned hike because the original entry point was completely overgrown. So all the elevation gain came right at the beginning. When I saw …
