Join us this Saturday for an adventurous tour of the Queen of Karwendel. We are
climbing Kaltwasserkarspitze 2733 m near Scharnitz in Austria. This a very rarely climbed peak and its a unique chance to climb a less visited part of the Karwendel. Weather is supposed to be good at the moment. If weather is supposed to be bad or mixed the tour will go to an easier peak, since this tour is only doable in good weather conditions.
This tour involves some climbing and
scrambling up to grade 2. I expect people to have some experience with
scrambling and difficult technical terrain. Pace is expect to be fast
with 600 hm/h and above. Of course i only expect people with excellent fitness and decent alpine experience to join ! The path is really long with 44 km in total. The first part of the path is very flat and not technical, so we will try to run this part . We need to move fast on that part of the trail to have enough time for the difficult part. The actual climb is pathless and rarely visited so no amrks are available. It is also possible to add Birkarspitze on the way back and descent through the Karwendel Valley if the group is fit and the time is there(+ 4km ), so we dont have to go the same way back we came.
We go there by car. Christian drives us from Donnersbergerbrücke. Car Fee is 15 €.
Things to bring :
Proper Hiking boots(Sneakers-> go Home)
Helmet
Spikes
Food and drinks for the whole day
Rain Jacket
Good mood and a smile
