The starting point for the hiking tour to the hut Zupalseehütte is the parking place Würfelehütte at the so-called "Virger Tratte".
For the ascent hikers are offered two different options. Either you follow the road, which leads away from the left side of the parking place for about 5 hours. Or you take the more demanding path through the forest, for which you will need about 3,5 to 4 hours.
For those who prefer a more moderate hike, it is recommended to take the hut taxi to the hut Wetterkreuzhütte. Then walk along a wide hiking trail in the direction of the hut Zupalseehütte. The hike from the Wetterkreuzhütte to the Zupalseehütte takes about 1,5 hours.
