Tour description

On the first day, you hike along the Alvierbach stream via the Schattenlagantweg trail to the valley station of the Lünerseebahn cable car. Take the cable car up to the Douglass Hütte or walk over the "Bösen Tritt". Follow the lakeshore on the left and the initially steeply ascending circular trail. After around 20 minutes, turn left towards the Lünerkrinne (2,155 m). The continuation leads over the Lünerkrinne, past the Gipsköpfle (1,975 m), to the first overnight accommodation, the Heinrich-Hueter-Hütte at 1,766 m.

Duration: approx. 5 hours with the Lünerseebahn or 6 hours via the "Bösen Tritt"
