Upper Drehhütte parking area

Highlight • Parking

As is so often the case, the early hiker gets the parking lot. Unlikely to get a seat in the summer from 10:00 a.m.

Strange weather today: strange layer of haze at all heights, a little more at the bottom.

Made it to the Drehhütte before the (still manageable) rush!

Unspectacular, but nice and quite quiet round in the Ammergau foothills.
