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: Developed Monolithic Staircase. El Peñón de Guatapé, frequently called 'La Piedra del Peñol', is a massive 200-meter granieten inselberg rising above the Guatapé Reservoir (Embalse Peñol-Guatapé). The ascent consists of ~700–740 concrete steps built into a giant natural fissure (step counts vary by source and whether the summit tower is included). Located 2,135m above sea level, the climb provides an extraordinary 360-degree perspective of the flooded Antioquian landscape and its many islands.
