October 26, 2024,Unterammergau - Hörnle Hütte ⛰️

Steep climb with a great view over the thick fog in the valley.
Unfortunately, we came across an impassable section on the way down.
The cow gate we were hoping for wasn't in the right place either, so we had to climb over fences. But it was a great walk :)
