Kemptner Hütte

In itself a beautiful and well organized hut. The focal point for the E5 and many other hiking trails, so unfortunately very large and overcrowded. Reminds more of a youth hostel than a mountain hut, as there is no romance and intimacy. The food and service were great, and the prices were also very reasonable! The path from Oberstdorf along the Trettach is beautiful and comfortable, if you are fit enough you should definitely not take the bus for a shortcut here. The path through the Sperrbachtobel is a bit more demanding, SAC T2 (mountain hiking).

Big hut, very good friendly service, very good delicious food.

Surrounded by the Bavarian Alps, the Kemptner Hütte in its present size, with over 100 room beds, has been available to all mountain lovers since 1904. The food here is a dream. I think some people just go up to enjoy the same, not to walk maybe even further. In addition, the products are from largely regional production. Highly recommended. Even more recommendable, of course, is to use the hut as a starting point for one of the many great mountain tours in the area.

Last overnight stay in the mountains, before civilization takes hold again in the valley.

Well filled at the weekend

E5 from Oberstdorf comment, after meals continue to Holzgau. I do not volunteer among masses of overnight guests. Hut is almost fully booked by the hiking / mountain guide groups for quite some weeks (or even the year before?).
Food tastes good!

Very nice family cabin.
Class food.

If you start from the Rappenseehütte, you can reach the Kemptner Hütte via the Heilbronner Höhenweg. But be careful: Time taken about 7 hours, and it is a bit of condition required and always have the weather in view

Two years ago I made the crossing of the Alps with the alpine school Oberstdorf
I can only recommend

Well-run cottage, but not a romantic tip! The 100 beds are 190 beds in the camp and when I was there (August 2017) were apparently all occupied.

Nice cabin, good food, camp with own bed! Top !

Everything was great, good service and the staff is great

Nice hut with delicious food and great views.

beautiful hut, overnight accommodation

Great DAV hut to start E5 or for the Heilbronner way

Top cheesecake and super nice innkeepers

Millions of euros are currently being converted here. The helicopter flies all day and brings material.

Great DAV hut with delicious food.

The Kemptner hut at 1,846 meters is the right start for a multi-day tour. As with all mountain huts, first come, first served.

Fantastic location with a panorama in all directions, nice hosts. Since there is a lot going on, it is best not to come during peak times.

Great hut location for nice tours. Sometimes very crowded.

The Kemptner Hütte towers high above the Sperrbachtobel at 1,844 m in the Allgäu Alps. The refuge, built in 1891, is the focal point for hikers and mountaineers. From there, not only does the very popular E5 long-distance hiking trail to Merano begin, but also the ibex tour over the main ridge of the Allgäu Alps.

For a hut, great food at normal prices
