Warth-Schröcken Tourismus

Brief description: Follow the loamy path up to the Lechleitner Alpe. Arriving here, a wonderful view of Warth awaits you and is perfect for a little break. Through blooming alpine meadows, partly already decayed huts and small lakes you hike further to the border crossing Bavaria-Tyrol. And don’t forget, you are now under the giant Biberkopf, which stretches 2.599 m up in front of you. A nice footpath takes you to the Mutzentobel, where you should be be free from giddiness and safe. Only slightly ascending to the lookout point towards Oberstdorf and a final ascent to the Rappenseehütte awaits you. The Rappenseehütte is located at 2.091 m and is one of the largest alpine club huts in the German-speaking area and can accommodate up to 400 people. Not to be forgotten is the turquoise mountain lake – the Rappensee. Go back on the same path again to Lechleiten to the entrance.
