Tour description

Unique is the winter hiking trail to the Muttjöchle, 2.074 m. This tour at the Sonnenkopf allows a real summit hike, which was previously only reserved for ski tourers and snowshoe hikers.
Description

From the mountain station of the Sonnenkopf cable car the marked winter hiking trail leads past the mountain restaurant Muttjöchle to the summit cross Muttjöchle. Along the way you will find cozy winter benches that invite you to linger. Arrived at the Muttjöchle, you have an impressive panoramic view of the surrounding mountains. The way back leads along the same path. A stop at the mountain restaurant Muttjöchle is worth it!
