Coburger Hütte — Seebensee & Drachensee

This is one of the most celebrated hikes in Tyrol, connecting two distinct alpine basins. Starting from the Ehrwalder Alm, a broad forest path leads to the Seebensee (1,657m), a turquoise lake that perfectly reflects the Zugspitze (2,962m) on clear days. The adventure continues with a steep, serpentine ascent of another 300 meters to the Coburger Hütte and the moody Drachensee (Dragon Lake). The hut sits on a high rock rib, overlooking both lakes and providing one of the most dramatic mountain vistas in the Mieminger Gebirge.

Route Typology: Tropical Lowland Jungle / Coastal Traverse. Corcovado's most well-known route is the approx. 20km trek from La Leona Ranger Station to the remote Sirena Ranger Station. The Osa Peninsula has been described by National Geographic as one of the most biologically intense regions on Earth, and this trail provides a direct immersion in its primary rainforest. The route alternates between dense, humid forest canopy and long, exposed beach stretches. It is a strictly regulated expedition where a certified guide is mandatory. Hikers must time their movement with the Pacific tides to safely navigate rocky headlands that become impassable during high water.
