Majestic peaks. Breathtaking landscapes. With our 70 years of age, we appreciated these moments of communion with the mountains and nature. In short, still beautiful discoveries where all the ingredients were gathered to make it an unforgettable hike.

From here, you can enjoy breathtaking views of the Tyrolean mountains. On one side lie the five villages of the Olympic region, nestled between the Wetterstein Mountains, the Karwendel Mountains, and the Hoher Munde. On clear days, you can see as far as the Zugspitze and far across the Inn Valley. On the other side of the Seefelder Joch Pass, the mighty Karwendel Nature Park stretches out. Rugged mountains, clear streams, and green meadows alternate here to create a unique spectacle.

Definitely take binoculars with you, as there is a direct view of the Zugspitze and a magnificent backdrop of the rest of the Alps. In snow and ice, crampons are recommended (sticks essential), as the last stretch and the descent (other route) are partly in the shade. Whether the top is generally accessible in winter, I can not say or assess. Have fun!!!
