Description

This route contains parts with UIAA I climbing on the ridge (If you don't know what this means, please look up at https://www.theuiaa.org/mountaineering/uiaa-grades-for-rock-climbing/). The climbing parts on the ridge do not have a steel rope to hold on to. Only the part up to the Pitzenegg summit is very exposed, but that section can be left out. The description at http://www.hikr.org/tour/post43881.html is quite useful, just note that it's about the reversed route.

Only for experienced hikers, and please message me if we haven't hiked together multiple times yet. The route contains multiple scrambling parts along the ridge. This hike only happens if the weather will be dry and stable, because we can't get down from the ridge if the weather would surprise us.

A DAV membership or equivalent mountain rescue insurance is strongly recommended.

We take the 7:13 train towards Reutte in Tirol. The hike will start from Ehrwald (at 8:54) or Lermoos (at 8:58). Whether to start from Ehrwald or Lermoos doesn't really matter, but I haven't tried the path from Ehrwald towards Tuftl Alm yet.

We return to Munich from Lähn. Possible Trains leave at 16:46, 17:18, 18:45, 19:18. We should aim at reaching the 17:18 train back, otherwise we will be back in Munich quite late (the train back takes 2:02h or 2:08h).

What to bring:

  • Have a very good fitness level. Ascend rate should be around 500hm/h at least.
  • Waterproof Hiking boots
  • Good sun cream, and other means of sun protection, like a sun hat, or a baseball cap. We will be on the ridge for a long time with no shadow.
  • Flexible hiking clothes, it will be quite warm and sweaty going up, but you might get wet and cold during the hike.
  • Food and Water for a whole day of hiking (at least 2 Liter Water recommended). There is no hut to stop at (except Tuftl alm right at the beginning).
  • Charged smartphone (my number is +49 152 28632131, in case you get lost, or fail to find the group in the morning).

Good to have equipment

  • First aid kit
  • Extra battery / Powerbank for your phone
  • Hiking poles
  • Spare socks (if your feet get wet)

Cost per person

  • Werdenfels Ticket: Between 10 and 15 Euros per person (Bring Coins!)
