#HutTreking

Let's continue where we stopped last week: still at the Stuttgarter Hütte, still day 2 of the Lechquellenrunde.
We listened to the inn keeper and split our tour in half as snow prevented us from taking the "normal" way through the Madlochjoch: First down to Zürs on the same route as yesterday and then we took the bus to Zug via Lech.
From there on it was all up again until we reached the Ravensburger Hütte at the Spullersee. The sun was strong during the second part and I sweated a lot.

Duration: 3 hours and 45 minutes in total (excluding transfer times, but including breaks while hiking)
Length: 11 km
Elevation: 1485 m to 2310 m
Ascent/Descent: 570 m ↑ and 725 m ↓

Two marmots stare at each other on green pasture. The left one is on all fours while the right one lifts its fore-paws.Stil the same two marmots as in the previous picture but now they fight.A metal sign just beside the hiking trail marks the border between Tyrol and Vorarlberg.A stream flows through a tranquil Alpine meadow. Some yellow flowers can be seen on both sides of the stream. Snow-covered mountains rise in the background. The sky is bright blue with few clouds.
Because we had to reroute again on the second day on our take on the Lechquellenrunde in June 2024, we started the day with an unplanned summit ascent.

From Stuttgarter Hütte it took us roughly an hour to reach the Fanggekarspitze (2640 m). Gladly the snow-covered path was already groomed.
While the weather on the hut was lovely, it got really cold, windy, grey and misty the higher we got. Sight distance was probly between 10 to 15 meters at the peak.

The hike towards the next hut (still day 2!) will be featured in another post next Thursday.

Duration: 2 hours and 15 minutes (including small breaks)
Length: 4.25 km
Elevation: 2310 m to 2640 m
Ascent/Descent: 350 m ↑ and 350 m ↓

A look out of the window: Sunny day ahead, blue sky, few clouds. White snow patches on green grass outside the hut.Everything appears to be grey: A person with trekking poles stands on a rocky hiking path. The path seems to vanish abruptly in the mist a few meters behind that person. The person wears grey and black hiking clothes.A man-made smiling emoji made out of numerous rocks.Two people at the grey metal cross mounted at the Fanggekarspitze. You can't see much because of the fog.
At the end of June 2024 we started a 6-day hut trekking tour, the Lechquellenrunde. Reservation problems at two huts forced us to change our original plan and follow the trail in reverse. After staying in Sankt Anton am Arlberg the days before, we reached our starting point, Lech-Zürs, by bus. From there it was a rather short hike up to the first hut, the Stuttgarter Hütte, which is situated at 2310 m right on the Tyrol side of the Tyrol-Vorarlberg border. Because the weather was really "meh" and we reached the hut at 10 o'clock in the morning, we had lots of time to chat with an employee of the hut, who studied in the same city as us.

Duration: 2 hours (including small breaks)
Length: 5.75 km
Elevation: 1715 m to 2310 m
Ascent/Descent: 635 m ↑ and 40 m ↓

A river flows through a green and mist-shrouded valley. A woman is a few meters ahead of me and smiles into the camera.Zoomed in photo of a marmot.A woman stands on a wooden bridge spanning a river. Green mountains rise behind her.The gravel roads leads upwards now and narrows in the distance.

Good morning from the Bayreuther Hut

Spontaneous trips are best trips. (There should have been this picture all along)
