The ascent to the Gruttenhütte via the Wochenbrunner Alm, the Gaudeamus Hütte and the Klammerlweg is an absolute highlight! Then back from the Gruttenhütte via the Ellmauer Steinkreis to the Wochenbrunner Alm.

August 10, 2023,🇦🇹 Gaudeamushütte - Klammlweg zur Gruttenhütte weiter zum Gruttenkopf und zurück zur Wochenbrunneralm oberhalb Ellmau

“A peak is not yours until you are back down.
Because before that you belong to him.”

– Hans Kammerlander

That was an adventure. At least for us low mountain range hikers from Thuringia:
Trail was marked as "moderate". But between the Gaudeamushütte and the Gruttenhütte, it was extremely difficult for us... at first we went uphill over root paths. …

June 11, 2025,Gruttenhütte von der Wochenbrunneralm

What a hike today 🙈. We took the hiking bus to the beautiful Wochenbrunneralm. From there we went to the Gaudeamushütte. We quenched our thirst and then climbed to the Gruttenhütte via the Klamml. Let me put it this way: "this path won't be easy; it will be rocky and difficult" 🎶 🙈😅. It involved climbing and overcoming scree. The …

August 25, 2023,Zur Gruttenhütte über den Klammlweg

More demanding tour past the Klamml via ferrata with a wonderful mountain panorama at all times.

This is not a hike but a mountain tour!
Before the via ferrata, a rock formation - secured with a ladder and iron pins - must be "conquered".
If you're already having difficulties here, you should turn back, as there's still some secured "climbing" …

August 19, 2023,🇦🇹Wochenbrunner Alm zur Gruttenhöhe

Grandiose tour with climbing deposits. In the Klammerl in front of the Gruttenhütte you should be reasonably free from giddiness. It goes over ladders and ropes up through the Klammerl. Very nice if you like it. And the view from the Gruttenhöhe is great 👍. And even if it doesn't look like it... exhausting 🥵😂

Where ?

Enjoy autumn on the last days of October.

So we drove up to the Wochenbrunneralm.

From there we took the path up along the St Anna Grotte and the Gaudeamus Hut along the Adlerweg 318/324 and a small climbing section to the Grutten Hut.
