Toni-Lenz-Hütte, Mountain hut in Berchtesgadener Land, Germany
The Toni-Lenz-Hütte is a mountain hut in Berchtesgadener Land situated at approximately 1438 meters elevation on the southeastern slope of Untersberg. It provides overnight lodging for hikers and climbers who want to explore the surrounding peaks and valleys in the region.
The refuge was founded in 1936 and has since served mountaineers as a base camp for their expeditions. Over the decades, it has become an important hub for exploring the Untersberg massif.
The hut functions as a meeting point for mountain enthusiasts and spelunkers who visit the nearby Schellenberger Ice Cave, Germany's largest publicly accessible ice cave.
You can reach the hut by following a marked trail from the Marktschellenberg parking area near the B305 road. The terrain is accessible for less experienced hikers but requires sturdy footwear and a moderate level of fitness.
The proximity to the Schellenberger Ice Cave makes this hut an ideal base for visitors wanting to explore that natural attraction. The building itself remains visible year-round, but staffed operations are limited to the warmer months.
