Thanks to the roots, it can be done with concentration and time, but not without it

View of Kochelsee and Herzogstand

Highlight • Viewpoint

Hello hikers, up on the Jochberg is extra class. Entrance from the Kesselbergstrasse car park is located in a U, approx. 1 km before Lake Walchensee. Before you get there it's about 700 meters uphill for a good 2-2.5 km :-). Very varied with forest, gravel bed, rock and path sections. Exhausting anyway... it goes up.
But once you get to the top... a dream!!! Best view of Walchensee and Kochelsee ever... and to the south of the mountain ranges of the foothills of the Alps. Insane view with comparatively little effort. No cable car, no lift, no parking lot, no kiosk provides technology on this mountain. A mountain cross... of course it has to be. Have a snack upstairs and just linger for an hour. Take a few pictures and then go back downstairs. A nice trip for sporty families. Unforgettable. Greetings Armin

Zach on the climb, with slight technical difficulties. Some route markings are not available, so pay close attention to the GPS.
Ascent with short breaks in 90 minutes, 610 HM.
Descent via the forest road so as not to take any risks with the little one

In winter you should be well equipped for the hike. Return, if you are not sure-footed, back over the wide path

Great, but demanding tour with many beautiful impressions, the descent is not for the faint of heart 😅 but is doable if you have a good basic condition 🙂

Absolutely beautiful tour, but you need to be in good physical condition here, you should have a good head for heights and a snack for the summit is not bad either. Maybe it was up to us, all 3 are not quite unsportsmanlike, but as a moderately difficult tour, I would rather not have classified it for hiking. Compared to …
