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.

The rooftop of Africa. The Lemosho Route is widely considered the most scenic and successful path to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro (5,895m). Starting from the west at the Lemosho Glades, the trail traverses the vast Shira Plateau before joining the southern circuit. Over 7 or 8 days, hikers pass through five distinct ecological zones: tropical rainforest, heath, moorland, alpine desert, and the arctic summit zone. Its longer itinerary provides superior acclimatization, leading to some of the highest summit success rates on the mountain.
