Summit happiness... Behind the cross is a box with a summit book to write in.

If you approach the Zinnkopf from Eisenärzt, after a stretch of forest path you will come to a signpost where you can decide to continue along the forest path (easier but much longer) or take the path to the summit (shorter but steeper). At the summit there are a few benches that invite you to take a break and enjoy the snack you brought with you. Conclusion: A beautiful tour, nice little mountain, everything done right 😊👍.

The Zinnkopf, at a good 1200 m, is certainly one of the smaller mountains around Ruhpolding, but nevertheless very rewarding for a mountain hike. The forest road leads steadily steeply upwards, past the Rabenmoosalm. Easy to walk, mostly fine gravel. Only the last steep section to the summit cross is exposed and muddy when wet. Conclusion: an interesting mountain with great views ...
