Schinder Ascent Trail

Highlight • Trail

Very long but relatively easy to walk path. The path leads through the forest. The higher you get, the denser the plants grow along the sides of the path.

Trausnitzalm

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Alm is idyllically located below the Schinder. However, it is not continuously cultivated - so you cannot rely on receiving provisions.

Schinder scrambling section

Highlight • Climb

Short, steep section towards the summit plateau of the Austrian Schinders. No major problem.

The "Schinder" consists of two peaks: the Austrian Schinder, which is also often called Trausnitzberg and the Bavarian Schinder. Both offer fantastic views.
The Austrian Schinder lies on the border between Tyrol and Bavaria and towers over its neighbor by 12 meters. A nice tightrope walk connects the two peaks.

Climbing Section on the Austrian Schinder

Highlight • Climb

There is a rope insurance available. The difficulty I would classify as medium.

Schindertor Rock Arch

Highlight • Natural Monument

Schinderkar, nice to run down / slip. But watch out if the soft gravel layer suddenly stops and you are too fast (own painful experience!)

Schinderkar

Highlight • Gorge

The cirque is scenically great. I would also recommend the "descent" option. The climbing passage through the hole in the rock ("Fensterl") is not a big problem thanks to the ropes and footholds. The descent via the gravel path is not very pleasant (poles are definitely recommended!), but it is still easier and less strenuous than climbing up here. Either way: keep your eyes open and enjoy the surroundings!

Update 2024 after climbing through the cirque: The climb is strenuous, but has the advantage of being easier to find the way (keep to the right when going up) and there is also less risk of slipping. Conclusion: It goes in both directions. As of today, I would rather climb than descend.
