    Hiking

    The easiest way to reach the hut is by taking a light hike from the mountain station of the Felskinn cable car. The walk is easy to do in 45 minutes. From the hut and on the way dreamlike views open up into the mountains. It's also interesting to hear what tours others have done. This results in a great atmosphere at the hut.

    Hiking

    Exciting route over the glacier to the Britania hut.
    The path is well marked (also over the glacier), but there are a number of large stones to be overcome. Absolutely top, but exhausting.
