Loop
Demanding circular hike in the Bavarian Prealps south of the Tegernsee.
The hiking route begins in Ohlstadt and goes up very steeply, especially in the first 3 kilometers to the Wankhütte. From here it is no longer quite as steep, but on partly stony paths without shade to the summit of the Hirschberg. Especially around the summit you should be sure-footed and free from giddiness. It then goes back to the starting point via the Bärenfleckhütte.
