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.

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. 🌼

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 🤗🌻🐐
