Add photos

The photos show in order:

  • Hochmiesing summit
  • the "Kriegersteig" route to Rotwand summit (directly opposite from the Hochmiesing summit route.
  • Looking down from Auerspitz. Rotwand is on the left shrouded in fog.

The critical part of this route is the "Kriegersteig" path up to Rotwand summit. That part is very steep and can be dangerous when conditions are bad. In winter the alternative route up to Rotwand summit can also be problematic due to snow conditions and avalanche risk.

Due to the length of the route, it can make sense to stop at Rotwandhaus, before heading up to Auerspitz.

Expect plenty of annoying mountain pines on/in the path around Hochmiesing summit, and Auerspitz summit.
