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.

Canyon adventure near Reykjavík. Glymur was long regarded as Iceland’s tallest waterfall (198m / 650ft) until the glacial retreat revealed Morsárfoss in 2007. Regardless, it remains one of the most scenic and technically engaging day hikes just an hour's drive from the capital. Tucked into the back of Hvalfjörður (Whale Fjord), the 7km loop hike offers a genuine sense of adventure. The route involves crossing the Botnsá river via a suspended log, navigating a natural stone cave, and ascending steep, often muddy canyon rims equipped with fixed rope handholds for stability. The reward is an aerial view into a moss-covered chasm where the massive falls plunge through a narrow slit in the volcanic rock.
