Scenic mountain hike from Oberrasen via Lutterkopf to Durakopf peak with wide panoramic views and circular route options.

This scenic mountain tour leads from Oberrasen (Oberstall) via the Lutterkopf peak to the Durakopf peak and, after a longer forest ascent, continues mostly along an open ridge.
The hike offers wide-ranging views over the Antholz Valley as well as the surrounding peaks of the Rieserferner group and the Dolomites.

Starting from the parking area before Oberstall, the path first leads through the forest to the Hochrautalm hut and Brunnerwiesenalm hut (both serviced), which are perfect for a break. From there, the route continues uphill to the Lutterkopf peak and follows a panoramic trail to the Durakopf peak.

The tour can be adapted flexibly: those who want to save elevation gain can start at the Restaurant Mudler mountain inn. It is also possible to extend the hike into a circular route via the Taistner Vorderalm hut or descend back to the valley via the Kirmlehof farm.

Suggestions

This tour is especially rewarding on clear days, as the ridge between Lutterkopf peak and Durakopf peak offers spectacular panoramic views in all directions. If you prefer a more relaxed start, begin at the Mudlerhof mountain inn to avoid the steeper forest ascent. For a more varied route, consider combining the hike with a visit to Taistner Vorderalm hut.
