This easily walkable hike leads through the forest along the stream up to the Brunnenkopf houses . Once at the top, a great view, a beer garden atmosphere, delicious food and drinks invite you to linger.

From the hiking car park at Linderhof Palace, the signposted trail leads uphill through the forest, initially accompanied by a lovely stream. The steadily ascending, wide gravel and pebble path makes the climb easy. Emerging from the forest, the trail runs alongside the Brunnenkopf alpine pasture, offering fantastic views. From here, the BrunnenkopfhÃŒtte (Brunnenkopf Hut) is already visible and can be reached in just a few minutes. Numerous tables, chairs, and benches provide ample space for visitors to stop, relax, and enjoy food and drink while taking in the views of the Graswang Valley, Ettal, the Kreuzspitze and Friederspitze peaks, and the Wetterstein Mountains. Those wishing to continue can reach the summit of the Brunnenkopf from here in about 15 minutes.
