Engeratsgundsee Map

Beginning at the Edmund-Probst-Haus which can be reached by taking the Nebelhornbahn to the Höfatsblick mountain station, head in the direction of Big Thumb (2280m). From the summit descend down through alpine forests, passing a series of smaller lakes until coming to the lovely Engeratsgund Lake. After you’ve enjoyed the lake continue on past alpine wildflower meadows, following a forest road to Gable House. Here you can take the bus back to Bad Hindelang.
