Description

The trail starts at parking lot P18 "Munde" near the Mundestadl in the Moos district of Leutasch. From here, the hike leads through the Rappertal valley, following trail no. 24 into the Katzenloch. The path winds gently through the forest until reaching the junction to the Rauthhütte.

From this point, the route continues uphill on trail no. 99. The path leads through light mountain forest, offering beautiful views of the surrounding landscape. After a final ascent, the Rauthhütte is reached – a perfect place for a well-earned break while enjoying the impressive mountain scenery.

The return follows forest road no. 8, which descends gently back to the starting point.

Tip: If you have some energy left, don’t miss the short detour to "Zugspitzblick." After about 20 minutes of walking, a breathtaking view of the Zugspitze opens up – a rewarding end to this scenic and varied tour.
