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 guardian of the island. Mount Hallasan is a majestic shield volcano that forms the bulk of Jeju Island. As a UNESCO World Heritage site, it offers a beautifully maintained trail network through unique basaltic landscapes and diverse flora. The trek to the summit is a full-day commitment, ascending through ancient stone-oak and fir forests into a subalpine zone. At the summit, hikers are rewarded with a direct view into the Baengnokdam—a vast crater and seasonal lake (White Deer Lake)—and, on clear days, panoramic views of the entire Jeju coastline and its surrounding volcanic 'oreums'.
