Tegernseer Hütte innkeeper carries supplies manually due to cable car failure

The Tegernseer Hütte, a mountain hut located between the Roß- and Buchstein peaks in Bavaria, has significantly reduced its food menu due to a broken material cable car. Because the hut lacks a road and has no potable water source, all supplies must be transported manually.

Innkeeper Andreas Hauber and his helpers are forced to carry between 20 and 50 kilograms of food, water, and firewood on foot up 400 meters of elevation. This arduous process takes approximately one hour per trip.

As a result of the logistical challenges, meat dishes have been removed from the menu due to cooling difficulties, and many traditional snacks have been cut to minimize the weight of bread being carried. The current menu is largely limited to soups and cheese spätzle, though breakfast for overnight guests remains available.
