Panoramabrücke Olpererhütte — Attraction in Finkenberg

Trail 502 from the parking lot takes you up here on an incredibly rocky path almost like a haphazard mountain stairway with each step of varying height and incline. Do not get carried away by insta posts and attempt this hike in a fancy outfit or without proper hiking shoes and poles. The signpost at the start the trail is a joke as it mentions 1hr 30 mins as the duration of the hike to the hut from the parking. You need a minimum of 2.5-3 hrs uphill with plenty of stops for water. Carry atleast 1 litre of water per person if your hiking this in the summer months. Its also one of those hikes that need time and concentration downhill as well due to the rocky terrain and takes about 1.25-1.5 hours. So plan a total of atleast 5-6 hours for the complete hike.Its a safe hike and not exposed and the views from up here make it...

Oh, what a fun it was to watch them. I leaved the place and she still wasn't happy with the pictures she made.) If you want to get here quick, follow the red marker from the parking to Olpererhute. Watchout! There are two trails. One closer to the parking takes 3,5 hour. We took the red trail nearby, which took us a about 1 1/4 hour. It's hard, but the view is beautiful from the lowest point...

A must, it’s staircase style rocks all the way, steep no real flat areas, but with good level of fitness your get to the top in a hour with a steady pace and just a few water breaks, I was lucky and there was only 3 people in the queue for the bridge, but shortly after our photos there was a Que of 20+ people, there’s a €18 toll that only lets cars pass every 20min, but this dose limit the amount of people hiking at the same time, I flew past most on the hike up probably why I was lucky with...
