Description

Hike with amazing views with not one but three(!) lakes? Hoher Kranzberg is the peak - organising this Friday :)

This hike will be moderately paced. No fast hiking, please :')

We can stop at the restaurant/s near the lake provided that if they are open on New year's eve.

I seriously don't know when we will be returning after the hike but I would like to catch the return train at 4:04 pm  (4:36 pm at the latest). It takes nearly 2 hours of train travel each way. Edit: I am attending another night hike on HBM and it's better to catch the 4:04 PM train.

If the number of participants is less than 3, the hike will be cancelled. If there are people on the waiting list, the number of participants may be extended.


Edit: I have been getting messages asking if they can join the hike. The number of participants listed is 10. If the people in the main list drop out, the ones in the waiting list will be automatically joined to the main list one by one.

I should have mentioned this earlier when the event was created:

One should have done winter hiking before in order to join the hike (I check your HBM profile, in case one wonders how). Also,It is mandatory to have spikes for winter hiking. So else, there is a high chance of slipping and injuring oneself.

Good to know

1. Proper hiking shoes with good grip (mandatory)

2. Hiking attire (including jacket if you don't want to freeze at the top) (mandatory). Hiking poles (recommended)

3. Spikes (mandatory or else risk of falling down and breaking one's nose :)  ). Gaiters (I don't think one needs it but if you have one, carry it)

4. Cash (at least 15 euros. extra needed if you want to have some drinks or food at the hut) (mandatory).

5. Water (at least 1 L)

6. Food (please carry some since I don't want anyone to be hungry till we reach the peak. If the restaurants near the lakes are open, we can grab something to drink)

7. Gloves (if you get cold fingers easily like me)

8. DAV insurance (recommended)

9. Sunscreen

10. Medications if any


Disclaimer: I am not a professional hiker or so. So you will be hiking with me at your own risks (as far as now, no one was injured during my hikes - except for wearing improper hiking footwear and getting blisters). Well, there are helicopters for rescue but be prepared to shell out 3000 euros for that if you don't have DAV insurance.

Comments
Guys, just a reminder to bring winter spikes / groedels to the hike. Most of the route will be icy and it's better to have this equipment! Please have them!

If you decide to come later than 8:15 am (even one minute late), please also be prepared to buy your own ticket. I will be standing in front of one of the platforms 27-36 from 8 am (I shall update the exact platform tomorrow). Also, please bring spikes!!!!!. Also, one cannot drop out of the hike after 8:15 PM today. So, please unjoin in advance! -Swa
