This day's stage is a highlight. The route: fantastic. The stage destination: a majestic glacier castle. The high alpine Brandenburger Haus is in a very exposed location and offers royal views of the Weißkugel, Langtaufererspitze and Hintere Hintereisspitze. The food: imperial and rated 99 points in the Falstaff Hüttenguide in 2024.
