Access trail to the mountain hut
Short approach through initially very green and later increasingly wilder landscape. The path is partly narrow and somewhat steep.
Beautiful route along the Lüsenstal into the Längental and up to Westfalenhaus. Ascent to Münsterhöhe.
Rewarding summit route with varied flora and fauna.
A hut ascent that is a joy. The Lüsener Fernerkogel is always in view.
