WINDACHALM/ FIEGL'S GUESTHOUSE --> Gaisstabl --> SIEGERLAND HUT
The Siegerland hut stands on a height of 2,710m - directly at the foot of the highest mountains in the Stubai Alps.
The hike starts at Windachalm/ Fiegl's hut and continues through the wide Windach valley to the Siegerland hut.
Enjoy the view of the gentle pasture areas, deep gorges, a waterfall and glacial polish.
Author’s recommendation
In summer there is a hut taxi that runs from Sölden to Windachalm/ Fiegl's guesthouse. This saves you the way from Sölden to Windachalm.
