Places where you can eat and drink:
Adolf Nossberger Hütte
Route:
1. Gradental parking area
2. follow the dirt road next to the creek
3. as you reach Naturlehrweg Gradental sign, walk under it - into the forest
4. follow the marked trail in the forest, leading up
5. cross the creek, go through the gate, and soon you will reach Gradenmoos
6. in Gradenmoos, keep right, walk around the 'Moos' on its right side
7. after crossing the creek, soon you will find a trail marking, that shows the way towards Adolf Nossberger Hütte
8. on the way up, the longer trail via Vordersee is recommended (no.816)
9. after a quite steep walk (560 m ascent in 2 km) you will reach Vordersee
10. walk past Vordersee, then past Mittersee, and you will see the Hütte already
11. reach the Hütte that is built next to Gradensee
On the way back, you can take the same route, or you can go (as we did) via Tierleitenweg (no.818) by Schwartze Lacke (another beautiful lake). This trail is a bit harder as it has some very steep and narrow areas with fixed ropes. Not recommended for people with a fear of hights.
Make sure to bring plenty of water!!!
