This mountain loop explores the Bavarian Prealps near Lenggries, leading up through shaded mountain forests to three distinct peaks: Steinköpfle, Hirschberg, and Kreuzbichl. The route follows natural woodland paths, grassy ridges, and traditional alpine pastures. Along the way, clearings open up to views of the Isar Valley and surrounding Alpine peaks. The summit of Hirschberg features a simple summit cross and peaceful resting spots overlooking the Tegernsee mountains. Natural soil paths can become slick after rainfall, making stable footing helpful along the steeper forest sections.
