It doesn’t get more enjoyable than this: Stage 3 of the Leutasch family long-distance hike offers the perfect conclusion.
Following the motto "A good hike deserves good food and drink", the final day is all about culinary delights. After another delicious hut breakfast, the route follows the Jägersteig trail downhill for about two hours. There’s also the option to take the forest road into the valley – but naturally, there’s much less to discover there!
The narrow path leads from Rotmoosalm in a wide right-hand curve past a shepherd’s hut, down through the Gutwald forest, and to Hämmermoosalm – the last stop before the journey’s end. The fact that "Hämmermoos" was named Gault&Millau Alpine Hut of the Year 2025 might not impress the kids as they dig into their Kaspressknödel, but the special charm of the hut can be felt by even the youngest visitors.
Happy and well-fed, the final kilometers back to the valley are a relaxed stroll. Again, there’s a choice between the forest road and the hiking trail. On hot days, a quick splash in the Leutascher Ache or a final stop at the Kneipp facility is a refreshing way to wrap up the adventure. After that, all that’s left is to bring the happy (and most likely sleeping) kids home – and the next day, relive the memories of an unforgettable family adventure.
