- 4.5 (45)·Hard·8.5 mi·Est. 6–7 hrPromising summit hike in the Ammergau Alps from Linderhof Castle. The first part of the ascent is technically easy on well-developed paths to the Brunnenkopfhütte, which offers refreshment stops from May to October. However, since a lot of altitude has to be overcome up to this point, you should be in good physical condition. Then it goes on steep paths, some of which are secured by wire ropes, to the summit. At the end there is also an easy climbing area, so surefootedness and a head for...
- 4.3 (9)·Hard·8.1 mi·Est. 6.5–7 hrScenic hike to the Grosse Klammspitze in the Ammergau Alps. The hike to the Brunnenkopfhütte can be completed safely. There is an excellent view from here. The hut is a great excursion destination and invites you to linger with its deck chairs and a giant swing. The climb to the fountainhead is also entirely unproblematic; only the last few meters to the summit cross pose a specific potential danger - after all, the ridge, with a steel cable, runs directly into, securing the abyss. Turning...
- 4.1 (4)·Hard·7.1 mi·Est. 5–5.5 hrGreat summit hike in the Ammergau Alps This beautiful hiking trail leads to the beautiful Brunnenkopfhütte, the former hunting lodge of Max II, which lies just below the Brunnenkopf summit. You can reach the summit very quickly from here, but the view from the hut is already worth the climb. With a Kaiserschmarrn and a cold drink you can strengthen yourself here before the descent. In the valley lies the Linderhof Palace, which is also worth a visit.
- 4.8 (7)·Hard·10 mi·Est. 6.5–7 hrBreathtaking hike in the Ammergau Alps Nature Park, Bavaria. There is an option to arrive at the Linderhof car park, but there is also a bus stop not that far from the starting point. It goes through the beautiful forest to some vantage points. At the end of the tour, it scores with the impressive Linderhof Palace with its palace park. Highlights of the tour: - Roßeck (1305 m) - Wellhead Hut - Hen's Head (1768) - Linderhof Palace - Venus Grotto in the Linderhof Palace Park
- 3.0 (1)·Hard·23.8 mi·Est. 17–18.5 hr3-4 days ridge hike. Most of the route leads over the ridge and is a real pleasure when the weather is nice. Start in the Füssen Tegelbergbahn. 1. Hut Kenzenhütte (great hut Essen, room, bathroom) 2. Hut Brunnenkopfaus 3. Hut Alfred Schuster Haus (rustic hut, with very modest washing facilities). Destination Oberammergau. Please note that the return journey to Füssen by public transport is not easy. During the holiday season, there are also school holidays in Bavaria and the buses drive...
