A house steeped in history awaits you below the Grünten summit at an altitude of 1,535 meters: the Grüntenhaus.
In 1851, Carl Hirnbein built the Grüntenhaus, the first and at that time the only accommodation in the Allgäu Alps. Curiously, he offered those who could not manage the climb on foot a ride to the Grüntenhaus on mules specially purchased in Savoy. Although you can no longer choose the donkeys for the climb and have to work your way up yourself, that does not detract from the fascination of this place. From the hearty mountaineer's snack to soups, changing hot daily dishes or homemade cakes: every hiker's heart is well catered for up here. And on top of that, the Egenrieder couple who run the hut will give you helpful tips about your hike.

Beautifully located hut, where you can fortify yourself for the last part of the climb, or enjoy a wonderful view after a tasty snack.
