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.

An exceptional ridge walk that offers a literal 360-degree panorama of Central Switzerland. From the historic Schynige Platte railway station, the trail loops around the Daube viewpoint, providing staggering views over the turquoise Lake Brienz and the deep blue Lake Thun. Simultaneously, the towering white peaks of the Bernese Alps (Eiger, Mönch, Jungfrau) form a jagged backdrop. The area is also famous for its Alpine Botanical Garden, containing over 700 species of high-altitude flora.
