As far as we know, the Kaufbeurer Haus claims to have the most beautiful view of the Hochvogel. But since we in Tirol like to share, everyone still managed to find a spot at the Kaufbeurer Haus to enjoy the view.
A short but physically demanding hike to a mountain hut in the Allgäu Alps, leading directly and steeply from Hinterhornbach up to the Kaufbeurer Haus. The narrow hiking trail climbs steadily throughout and, due to its steep gradient, requires good stamina—but rewards hikers with a Shelter & Refuge Hut in a particularly beautiful location on the north side of the Hornbach Range. At the top, in addition to the mountain hut’s charm, the view takes center stage—ideal for anyone looking for a challenging mountain hike with a rewarding destination.
The hike up to the Kaufbeuer Haus from Hinterhornbach takes about three hours. Because the trail to the hut is relatively steep and direct, you’ll need to be in good physical condition. The Kaufbeuer Haus is particularly well-known for its beautiful location and views.
