This Kranzberg panorama tour takes you to what is probably the most beautiful spot on Mittenwald’s local mountain, the Kranzberg (1,391 m). In addition to the fantastic view from the Kranzberg summit, hikers can also enjoy the atmosphere at the popular tourist destinations of Lautersee & Ferchensee. But this tour is also very popular for joggers and trail runners. The high point of the route is a 360° panoramic view from the Kranzberg summit, and this is the possibility for a swim at both Lautersee and Ferchensee. There are numerous possibilities for rest and refreshment in the hiking area at Kranzberg.
The route
The hike starts at Alpengasthof Gröblalm and leads first past the “Schafstadl” on the hiking trail to Berggasthof Wildensee, the first possibility for refreshment. A short distance behind the Berggasthof, a narrow but easy hiking trail branches off, leading over the north side to the summit of the Hohe Kranzberg (1,391 m). The descent continues to the south side of Kranzberg down to Ferchensee, one of the most popular bathing lakes in the region. Back in the direction of Mittenwald, after a short time you reach the lower Lautersee, where the last ascent to the mountain hut St. Anton begins. Descending to the cosy Korbinianhütte at 1,200 metres you reach the footpath again, which leads back to the starting point of the tour, the Alpengasthof Gröblalm.
