Description

Journey:

05:20 meeting in HBF platform 27

05:32 RB6 to Garmisch, then 07:04 RB60 to Ehrwald Zugspitzbahn

07:29 start hiking from Ehrwald

For descent we will take the cable car to Eibsee (€44, last descent at 17:45) and then a bus to Garmisch (every hour at xx:10, we will most likely catch the 18:10 one, arrival in München HBF at 20:52).  


  • The Gatterl route is considered the easiest way up to Zugspitze, however it's not a beginner friendly hike due to its lenght and the elevation of  >2200 m.
  • We’ll hike together, as one group, with a moderate pace of 350-400m of ascent per hour. Please do not join if you are significantly slower or faster. 
  • If time permits, I wish to stop at the Knorhütte or the summit restaurant for refreshments.
  • For now the weather looks sunny and warm (up to 28OC in the valley and 10OC at the top). If the weather forecast turns bad, I reserve the right to postpone or cancel the event. Also, if the weather turns bad while we are hiking, we will go back or change the route.
  • If we haven't hiked together before, please contact me before joining.
  • The link to the WhatsApp group will be posted in the comments section on Friday evening (27.06.2025). Please join the group to get the latest updates.


Things to bring:

  • Waterproof hiking boots
  • Layered clothing according to the latest weather forecast
  • Hiking poles
  • Headlamp
  • Cash for the hut
  • Food and water for the whole day
  • DAV insurance or similar
  • A good mood 😊


Note: Please unjoin well in advance, if you don't plan to come. You cannot unjoin the event less than 12 hours before its start.

Hiking can be dangerous, especially during winter. I am not a mountain guide. Everybody is responsible for themselves. Make yourself familiar with the route and its requirements. It's recommended to download the gpx file on your device.
