Seebensee & Drachensee – a beauty in summer as in winter (even though it’s frozen). Let’s hike up to the iconic lake at the bottom of Sonnenspitze, the Matterhorn of Ehrwald. If the conditions allow and we still have energy reserves left, we might get up to Drachensee as well.
Be prepared for snowy conditions and bring appropriate equipment (spikes, gaiters, etc.). Please bring lunch, we will have a break at the lake.
Please read all the sections below carefully and completely!
Transportation
The meeting point is in front of platform 27 of München HBF by 6:50. We will travel on a Bayern Ticket (group ticket) which I will buy on-site by this time; if you are late you will have to buy your own one. The cost is depending on the number of participants but should be around 14€. You can pay by either cash (please bring coins) or paypal.me/vincenthessfeld (working PayPal account associated with a bank account required).
Train schedule:
Munchen HBF 7:09 – Ehrwald Zugspitzbahn 9:01 – 9:15 Ehrwald Almbahn
Ehrwald Almbahn 17:14 – 19:26 Munchen HBF
I am not sure if the Bayern Ticket is valid in the Bus. If not, we can either pay extra (should be around 2€ per ride) or walk the additional 3km.

Please be aware that you are not able to withdraw from the hike later than 12h before the starting time. Please be fair and give your spot to other hikers if you are not able to come. If you are new to Hiking Buddies and do not have at least 2 reviews in your profile, please give me a short notice about your past hiking experience via Hiking Buddies Messenger until two days before, 24:00 o’clock.
