Route: Standard E5 route: Madau – Zams
The climb from Madau to Memminger Lodge takes 3 hours. From Madau, the walk to Zams im Inntal takes 8 to 9 hours via the standard route. You will need to allow time for breaks, so the hike can easily take up to 12 hours in total. In summer, many of our guests tackle this stretch, but it is not suitable for everyone. You are best placed to make a responsible decision based on your own knowledge of your fitness and your limitations.
