Alpine Association huts Württemberger Haus

Description

Simple hut for adventures in the Lechtal Valley
German Alpine Club, Stuttgart Division

Those wanting to achieve something special often have to go that extra mile. In the case of Württemberger Haus, the challenging ascent takes about four hours over peaks and troughs. However, good climbers are willing to accept this in return for the scenic beauty of the route and its destination. Nestled in the attractive alpine basin of Obermedriol and below a small lake, this mountain refuge welcomes visitors with a stone bell tower. Of course that is not all: Württemberger Haus has to welcome its guests – visitors can savour exquisite cuisine and comfortable accommodation. The Württemberger Haus is an important base along the Lechtal Valley High Trail and a stage along the Eagle Walk.
