At the end of April, Peter Lindlbauer, the landlord of the "Quenger-Alm" on Brauneck, will retire.

His successor is Marianne Obermüller from the "Stie-Alm".

Lenggries – It was with great pleasure that Peter Lindlbauer ran the mountain hut with 28 overnight accommodations for five and a half years. Before that, his daughter Katharina Wasensteiner had been the landlady for five years. It brought a breath of fresh air to the Alm, which was renovated in 2012. Corona, however, has changed the sociable life in the hut drastically. The constantly changing requirements - difficult to implement in the small hut -, a lack of planning security with the overnight accommodation and the deployment of staff have made Lindlbauer decide with a heavy heart not to continue to host the "Quenger". The “Quenger Bäda”, as everyone at Brauneck called him, looks back with mixed feelings. "The vibrant hut life with all the people and storiesI will miss the team spirit among colleagues and enjoying a wheat beer on the terrace,” says Lindlbauer.

Good cooperation with the owner family

But he is looking forward to the upcoming time with his grandchildren.

And to being able to enjoy the peace and quiet of the mountains as a hiker.

Lindlbauer really appreciated the many years of good cooperation with the Ertl family from Schlegldorf as the owners of the Alm.

Especially in the difficult Corona period: "You could talk to Annelies," says Lindlbauer.

At the beginning of the 2022 summer season, the "Quenger-Alm" will have a new tenant in Marianne Obermüller.

For eight years she has been in charge of everything gastronomic at the parental "Stie-Alm".

For Obermüller, who grew up at Brauneck, the mountain is her home.

With a reason for the takeover.

But she also explains: “Up here we have very good neighbors and treat each other with respect.

Maintaining this is very important to me.” Another reason is the pandemic: “The rush and urge into the mountains is enormous.

We want to try to equalize everything a bit with the two huts.”

That is Obermüller's concept

Obermüller believes that giving everyone their own space and freedom is more important than ever: “Huds that are too crowded are no longer up to date.” Action will also be more environmentally friendly and sustainable.

In bad weather, only one hut is open to save energy.

Transports do not have to be driven twice.

The "Quenger" becomes the little sister of the "Stie-Alm".

But with a very personal touch.

"A place for the soul to linger, enjoy, close to home, but also a bit wild.

I'm incredibly excited about my new project."

Chef is a trained farmer

The concept is already in place.

In summer, the "Quenger" should be a destination for families.

With a large playground and an extra children's menu.

In winter it should become a meeting point for young skiers.

A cool ski hut with a feel-good lounge and chill-out music.

In addition, a home-loving kitchen at fair prices.

The master chef and trained farmer has a special connection to the home kitchen.

Sustainability and added value are not just terms for her, they are also incorporated into the menu.

The passionate landlady does not shy away from the challenge of running two huts at the same time.” The 39-year-old looks ahead with confidence: “I have a strong, well-established team behind me.

We can deal with logistical problems,
