Description

The hike to Polles Alm starts from the football field in Huben. There, you follow the wide forest path first towards the alpine guesthouse at Feuerstein. After about 3 km, the path continues to the right past a small chapel towards Polles Alm. The path descends slightly at first, but then continues ascending through the Polles valley. On the left side of the path, you can hear the water of the Polles gorge rushing. Before the hut, the path rises again, then leads flat to Polles Alm.
