Plauener Hütte Hike

From the Bärenbadalm, walk along the road, and turn right, away from the asphalt road, passing a small private hut.

Follow the red marks on stones as the path leads you through woods. You come out of the woods on the road and walk along it for 1312ft. Ahead you can see the imposing dam high above.

The next yellow sign to your left leads you to Adlersblick and Plauener Hütte. You will wind switchback your way up through the wood, crossing the road twice before reaching Adlersblick.

Adlersblick is a great little hut with good food. From here you will make your first impression of the beautiful reservoir and the mountains around you.

From here, walk through a tunnel and along the left-hand side of the Zillergrundl reservoir until you reach an intersection with signs in two directions saying to get to the Plauener Hütte. To save kms, take the left one and hike up the small path until you reach the hut.

The Plauener Hütte is a wonderful mountain hut, offering meals and overnight accommodation.
Our map shows an optional excursion up to the Rainbachköpfl. Ask at the Hut for details on the trail.

To return, follow the same path in reverse. Note that when you are walking along Specher Zillergrundl, our map also shows a quick excursion on a path that takes you down closer to the water.
