Winter hike Winter walk to the Ehenbichler Alm hut

Difficulty ratings: difficult
Route length: 6.5 km
Duration: 4:00 h

640 vertical meters in winter steeply uphill through rough terrain for a delicious Kaiserschmarrn? Sounds like a perfect deal to us. For you too? Then let's get going.

Tour character

From the village center in Rinnen, head towards "alte Säge". After the bridge, you come to a forest path that eventually leads to the trail. Climbing steadily, you walk through the forest and can always enjoy the view of the Hönig. At 1,694 meters, you reach the Ehenbichler Alm, which is famous for its homemade Kaiserschmarrn pancakes. From up there, you have a great view of the Abendspitze, the Galtjoch and even the Zugspitze. The way back follows the same route. As the mountain hiking trail also has off-grid sections, we strongly recommend good footwear and hiking poles.
