Hintermoos-Jagglhütte circular route

From the Gasthof Bachschmied, you reach the Eggeralm via paths No. 12 and No. 11. Follow path No. 11 further uphill to the Geralmen, where you reach your next destination, the Jagglhütte. Now you hike along an alpine path below the Marbachhöhe to the Krinnkapelle (path No. 12a). Here you meet path No. 12, which you follow towards Hintermoos.

Self-assessment: Before every mountain hike, check your physical condition and correctly estimate your strength as well as that of your companions – especially your children! Surefootedness and being free from dizziness are often very important!

Planning and preparation: Plan every intended mountain hike carefully in advance. Hiking maps and guides as well as information from alpine clubs and locals such as mountain guides and hut hosts can be helpful for this.

Equipment: In the mountains, you need appropriate equipment and clothing, especially sturdy, high footwear with a grippy sole. Weather and cold protection are essential, as the weather can often change suddenly.

Weather forecasts: Observe the current weather conditions at: zamg.at or www.uwz.at. 

Togetherness: Observe the 10 rules for proper conduct with grazing animals and leave no litter in nature!

Do not dislodge stones: Do not dislodge stones, as this can seriously endanger other hikers. Marked sections with risk of rockfall should be crossed as quickly as possible with attention and caution.

Turn back in time: This is not a shame but a sign of wisdom. It becomes necessary when the weather changes, fog sets in, or if the path is too difficult or not in good condition.
