Popular circular route in Chiemgau, Bavaria. The cable car takes you very comfortably to the starting point of the high-altitude trails.

A stage with a thoroughly alpine character. At first it's a leisurely climb through mixed mountain forest - or you can take the Hochplatten lift - it soon becomes rocky and a bit exposed in parts. The Via Alpina runs below the Hochalpkopf and the rocky Raffen, before the small Steinlingalm invites you to rest.

The tour starts in Übersee and leads to Rottau. From there it goes to the Steinlingalm directly below the Kampenwand. After a short break, past the small chapel, around the Kampenwand towards the Piesenhausener Hochalm. !!! Attention!!! On this section, the bike has to be carried most of the time (approx. 1.5 hours) and you have to overcome several metres in altitude on bumpy and washed-out paths. So it's not for beginners, but only for experienced mountain bikers.
