  • Höhenprofil

    Panoramic mountain with sensational 360° panoramic view. Surrounded by the Ill, the Lutz and the Marulbach, it forms the westernmost corner of the Lechquellen Mountains.

    From the Muttersbergbahn mountain station (1,401 m) the trail leads northwards down into a valley, then over a steep slope up to the Fraßen Hütte (1,725 m). Over a mountain meadow you ascend the last meters to the summit (1,979 m). The descent can be made via the same path or the slightly longer variant via the Tiefenseesattel. Here, the path from the summit is a little steeper for a short while and then leads leisurely along the hiking trail down to the Tiefenseesattel. From there, take the hiking trail and then the goods path back to the starting point, the Muttersbergbahn mountain station.

    A stop at the Fraßen Hütte is well worth it!
