Wanglalm

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Wanglalm is at 2120 meters. From here you also have a nice view with a rustic fountain. However, this is not a managed hut.

View of the Tux Valley and Glacier

Highlight • Viewpoint

A view of the glacier is fantastic from almost every spot. Today we were able to catch a glimpse of the glacier as the sun rose on the ridge opposite. That's a truly special experience in the Alps.

What a fantastic view! The Rastkogel (2,750 meters) is part of the main ridge of the Tux Alps. You have earned a promising break up here and can let your gaze wander over the beautiful landscape.

From the Penkenbahn lift in Mayerhofen started the trip to the Rastkogel. The signs indicate 4 hours. It took us 3.5 hours to get there. The distance one way is 13.5 km. The start of the tour is quite boring, you walk on a gravel path. Then you go into the mountains.
The view of the Rastkogel is magnificent. Well …
