The path to the Lettlkaser hut guides the hiker from the town center into the impressive mountain world of the Leoganger Steinberge. On this varied route, the hiker can expect not only changing landscapes, such as forests or lush alpine meadows—sometimes hiking on wide paths, sometimes on a root-strewn forest trail, sometimes only on a narrow footpath. Along the way, besides great nature experiences, there are always impressive views. The Lettlkaser, a small alpine hut, welcomes hikers not only with rustic coziness and hearty meals but also rewards them with a magnificent view of the Leoganger Steinberge and the Saalfelden basin. Experienced hikers can reach, among other places, the Hainfeldscharte and the Passauer hut from the Lettlkaser.
