The Ifenbahn is also open in summer and takes hikers a considerable distance further up the mountain from the Auenhütte in no time at all. Also vice versa.

Highlight • Viewpoint

Look directly at the Ifen. If you are lucky you will discover some chamois. I tried to take pictures, unfortunately my camera is not good enough and you can not see much.

Ascent to Hahnenköpfle

Highlight • Climb

The ascent to the Hahnenköpfle is easier and easier than the ascent to the Ifen. From the summit you have a wonderful view over the Gottesacker plateau.

November 16, 2024,Hoher Ifen&Hahnenköpfle🏔️🏔️❄️💙☀️

Today we went to the Ifen with @derKlein and the Boyz.

Difficulty: T3

The approach to the plateau was quite cool, but the rest was otherwise very sunny and warm :-)

We went back the same way.

While the boys then went straight down, I went to the Hahnenköpfle with Tanja.

We had about 1000 meters of altitude.
