The Good Shepherd Inn

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Shortly after exiting the gorge there is an opportunity to refresh yourself. From here you either continue to the Hochlantsch or via the (not entirely undemanding) Prügelweg back to the entrance to the gorge.

If you want a parking space at the top (P3), you'll have to get up early.
If you don't start until 11:00, like we did, you'll be swarmed by unfit people who totally overestimated themselves and underestimated the …
