We loved the Gruttenhutte! Did the Eagle Walk stage 2 backwards, starting st Hintersteiner See and…read morehiking to the Hutte, then down to the town. Gruttenhütte provided awesome food (recommend the spinach dumpling), beer, and a respite after a long trek up. About 7 miles from where we started to the hutte, and about another two down to the nearest village.
