Ranking among the supreme ridge-running, cloud-probing, flower-swaying, peak-peering jaunts in all of the Lechtal Alps, this stage to the Memminger Hütte hut will have you hopping with joy with its nonstop horizon-spanning views of jagged ridges, cirques, flanks and colossal summits, though you'll work hard to reap those rewards. Once on the ridgetop, the trail passesthe 2,657-metre Großbergspitze mountain and 2,612-metre Großbergkopf peak along a precipice that is assisted by a fixed anchoring system of cables. A vigorous climb switchbacks up to the Seescharte ridge. Beyond, it’s a knee-jarring descent to the Memminger Hütte, where a necklace of three sparkling alpine lakes is flanked by rocky peaks.
