Description

PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE JOINING THE HIKE...!! ALSO, THERE ARE CURRENTLY 7 PEOPLE IN THE WAITING LIST AND A LOT OTHER HAVE EXPRESSED THEIR INTEREST TO JOIN THE HIKE. SO, UNLESS YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN THAT YOU WANT TO JOIN THE HIKE, PLEASE DO NOT REGISTER HERE (OR, DE-REGISTER YOURSELF WELL IN ADVANCE SO THAT THE PEOPLE WHO ARE ACTUALLY INTERESTED GET A PLACE!).

This is an easy winterhike suitable for beginners also. Even if you are an absolute beginner, you can still join the hike if you exercise regularly throughout the week (at least 6 hours of cardio each week).

Meeting point: We'll meet at Central Station (Hauptbahnhof) platform 26 right before 08:55. We'll take the RE towards Mittenwald and get down at Garmisch-Partenkirchen. After we meet, we'll buy the group ticket for our journey so please don't be late, otherwise you have to buy the ticket for yourself. If you do not find the team on the day of the event, please call me @+4917640491356.

N.B.1. The gpx file for this hike is already available. Everyone please download a gpx viewer app (e.g., bergfx, gpx viewer) in your phone and save the gpx file of the route. It is important to have the route beforehand if you get separated from the team!

N.B.2. The weather is supposed to be good on Saturday. If the weather condition changes and becomes bad, I'll have to cancel the event. It is not recommended to take unnecessary risks. The event will also be cancelled if the number of participants are less than 3.

Alert for Corona Virus: Please do not join the event if - i) you are sick, or, ii) you have recently been in a trip to China.

Good to know

Things to bring:

  1. Waterproof hiking boots are mandatory! (No sneakers, sport shoes)
  2. Enough cash (12 - 14  € ) for the ticket (please bring enough coins also for the change!)
  3. Food and drink (with enough water)
  4. As snow is expected at the top, Gaiters, Crampons and Hiking Sticks are highly recommended!
  5. If you are a beginner and don't have much alpine experience, you should bring crampons and hiking sticks to keep up with the team. Otherwise we might leave you behind if you are too slow and you have to buy your own ticket on your way back.

Note: Please unjoin the event well in advance, if you don't plan to come.  You cannot unjoin the event when it is starting in less than 12 hours.

If you have any doubt or question, please contact me via text message or WhatsApp @+4917640491356.
