Tour description

You can save energy from the Douglass Hut to the Heinrich Hueter Hut. There is a route waiting for you where you will descend more than you ascend. Nevertheless, this stage is very varied. You move in a picturesque setting.

Approach

Coming from Feldkirch, take the Brandnertal motorway exit and follow the L82 towards Brandnertal. Passing the Brandnertal mountain lifts, you finally reach deep in the valley the Lünerseebahn. From here you must continue with the gondola to get off directly at the top by the Lünersee. The gondola exit is also your starting point of the route, the Douglass Hut.

Public transport

Just leave your car standing

From Bludenz train station take bus line 81 to the Lünerseebahn. The stop is: "Lünerseebahn".

Directions

The path leads you along the shore of the Lünersee, which lies to your right. Here you follow the great Walserweg. After a few meters, the path forks. Follow the ascending path with signage towards the Heinrich Hueter Hut straight ahead. Continue towards the Lünerkrinne, which at 2158 m marks the highest point of this route. Continue following the hiking trail that now descends. After two right turns, which you ignore, there is a left turn. Also ignore this and continue following the hiking trail and signage towards the Heinrich Hueter Hut.
