    Moosalm Adamhütte with sun terrace and mountain view
    Photo: Moosalm - Adamhütte
The rustic hut lies at the foot of the Hundstein at 1,450 m above sea level and rewards you with a wonderful panorama.
From the terrace of the Moosalm you have a panoramic view of the Salzach Valley, the Drei Brüder and the Hohe Tauern. Once refreshed, the Moosalm offers you a variety of possibilities: 

For hikers: continue along the steeply rising path until the first fork. From here a path leads to the left to the idyllic and hidden Lake Adam and Lake Eve. Passing the lake, you come to hiking trail no. 444 - left to Bruck or Thumersback, continue on the right over the Moosalmhöhe and past the Ochsenkopf to the Hundstein at 2,117 m.

For mountain bikers: It is also possible to continue from the Moosalm to the Hundstein or to Thumersbach.
