The Pfälzerhütte is a mountain hut at an altitude of 2,108 meters and is located at the top of the Naaf Valley on the border with Austria. The hut is an ideal starting point for tours to the Naafkopf, where the borders of Austria, Switzerland and Liechtenstein meet, as well as to the Liechtensteiner Weg, via which the Brandner Ferner, the Mannheimer Hütte and the Schesaplana can be reached. Above the hut towards the Naafkopf is a climbing garden with routes from 4th to 7th difficulty levels.

You can find all information about prices and opening times at alpenverein.li/huetten/pfaelzerhuette-2108m.

Trail to Vorder Grauspitz

Highlight • Trail

From the Pfälzerhütte you can follow this path to the summit. The route is strenuous and also dangerous, especially in bad weather. There is no mark.

September 4, 2022,🇱🇮 Fürstin-Gina-Weg Malbun

Panoramic, ridge, circular and border hike in one! On the Fürstin-Gina-Weg in the neighboring princely Ländle - in the Principality of Liechtenstein - you will be rewarded with breathtaking views down below! From the Sareis mountain station, the ridge path leads back to Malbun via Sarseiserjoch, Spitz, Augstenberg, Pfälzerhütte, Bettlerjoch, Tälihöhe.

For some, it's Mount Everest - for me, today it's Augstenberg with its summit cross... unfortunately, without a summit book. The Fürstin-Gina-Weg is advertised as a mountain hike that requires surefootedness and a head for heights, and that's true. At over 2000 meters, you should concentrate on walking step by step and not be distracted by the breathtaking scenery... even …

Very beautiful ridge hike with a summit (Augstenberg 2359m) in the Liechtenstein Alps and above all great nature (alpine roses galore). The host of the Pfälzer Hütte said he watered the flowers every day throughout June😂.
Difficulty easy, mostly T2, a few places are secured with a wire rope but easily doable🙋‍♂️

From the chairlift to the Pfälzer Hütte via the Fürstin-Gina-Weg...just unbelievably beautiful and highly recommended 🤩😍...basically MEGA!!!
From the hut back to Malbun we were unlucky with the weather...the fog and the low-hanging clouds made all views impossible and the snow that was still lying in places and a lot of mud on the paths down made walking very difficult …

October 1, 2023,Liechtenstein - Fürstin Gina Weg von Malbun

My sister-in-law says that just cycling has to get boring after a while. For a change, she suggested - together with my brother-in-law - a hiking tour in Liechtenstein.

Now I wouldn't have even thought of going hiking in Liechtenstein, but the idea sounded good and the route itself sounded great too. And in fact, this is a really great …

Very nice circular hike from Malbun over the Augstenberg (2359m) back to Malbun. There are over 1000m to overcome over the 12km route. At the end of the tour, for the final descent to Malbun, we took the chairlift. Sure-footedness and a bit of a head for heights are recommended on the sections of the path along the ridge.

June 29, 2024,Wanderung 👞 Malbun 🇱🇮 - Sareiserjoch - Augstenberg - Pfälzerhütte- Malbun

Today we're out and about with Cornelia at our neighbors in 🇱🇮 👍.
We started in Malbun and headed to Augstenberg - Pfälzerhütte and back to Malbun.
We managed the first few meters of altitude quite "easily" with the Sareiser Bahn.👍
When we arrived at the mountain station, we were greeted by the first heavy gusts of wind, and we …

We started at the large parking lot at the entrance to the town, where we got the latest weather forecast for the intended route from the tourist information office (Malbun Center). You can also get a Lichtenstein souvenir stamp in your passport here.
All in all, a really recommendable tour with spectacular views of the Nenzing sky. The only thing …
