Join me on this wonderful hike to Thaneller (2341 m) via the Werner-Riezler-Steig. We are going to make a loop which would be about 19 km as shown in the map. We will climb at a moderate climbing speed of 400-450 m/h. If everything goes as planned, we will start climbing at 09:00 am and take the 17:11 connection back to Munich. Please check the itinerary below for more information.

The hike is rated at T4 level difficulty and is NOT suitable for beginners. Please familiarize yourself before joining the hike. Sturdy shoes and a head for heights are necessary for the Werner-Riezler-Steig. Please look at the demo video below to see if you are comfortable with the route and the exposure,

• There might be some snow patches close to the peaks and on the ridges, so having spikes will be helpful.
