A long and high, south to north running ridge is bordering Achensee lake to the west; the northern end of it is called Seekarspitze. Seekarspitze and the southern end of this ridge, Seebergspitze, are two well known and popular hiking summits, the ridge itself is a nice traverse, too. Jammed between the much higher mountains of Rofan to the east and the Karwendel ranges to the west and south, Seekarspitze and the ridge traverse to Seebergspitze nevertheless offers good views on the adjacient ranges and areas.

To the north, Seekarspitze opens the huge cirque of Seekar with Seekar Alm huts, the denominating location for the mountain. The rugged eastern rock face above Achensee lake is always a spectacular sight. The western slopes down to the lush meadows of Pasillalm and wild Oberautal are more gentle and less rugged.

From may through july beautiful and abundand wildflowers are blossoming on the meadows and even in the rock parts of that mountain. July sees many alpine roses on the northern slopes. Seekar Alm offers food and drinks in the summer months, nowadays however with background music – not to everybodys delight. The traverse route to Seebergspitze with the descent via Pasillalm or to Pertisau village and a return trip on the Achensee ships can make a more than satisfying day on Seekarspitze.
