Demanding and popular hike in Chiemgau.
A great circular route to one of the most important climbing mountains in the Chiemgau Alps. An easy path leads through the forest, over bridges and watercourses to the Branderalm. Then it gradually becomes rockier - sure-footedness, a head for heights and the occasional use of your hands are required here. Once at the top, the marvellous view awaits.
The start is at the car park at Gasthof Seehaus, right next to the "Seehaus" bus stop. This is a great place to stop for a bite to eat after the hike.
Highlights:
- impressive Hörndlwand
- Ruhpolding woodcutter museum
