Jägersteig Trail (Geigelstein Conservation Area)

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Narrow, partly steep path through beautiful forest and further up over meadows to the Schreckalm, which is more varied than the forest path alternative to the Priener Hütte. You should be prepared for the fact that the path is sometimes damp to wet and you have to avoid the legacies of the cows, but this does not detract from the experience.

Schreckalm

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Jausenalm, at an altitude of 1403 m. Accessible from the valley via the Jägersteig or further below via the forest path, from which you turn left in front of the Priener Hütte to the Schreckalm.

Geigelstein, beautiful and strenuous.

I would have more to say but I'm stressed out on vacation 😅
Was at the summit at 11am with limited visibility so I'll have to come back.

Find of the day:
In the first pictures the cube in my hand, who can guess what it is, even though I used it myself a long, long …

Recommended in dry weather, otherwise it gets pretty slippery in places! Otherwise dream tour!

The ascent was a bit unspectacular at the beginning, but on well-paved gravel paths. After it had rained a lot recently, I wanted to be on the safe side.
From the Priener Hütte, which is definitely worth a visit, the landscape became incredibly beautiful with a view of the surrounding mountains! The way up to Geigelstein is more strenuous than …

June 2, 2025,Geigelstein, 1808m (Chiemgauer Alpen)

A spontaneously planned tour to this beautiful panoramic peak in the Chiemgau Alps.
The ascent was beautiful and led over magnificent alpine meadows with a few intrusive chills. Shortly before the summit, we encountered a marmot and were rewarded with a magnificent 360° view after a few sweaty meters of climbing.
The descent then led us to the Priener Hut, …

It should actually be sunny everywhere in the Alps. At the summit you could see that there was sun all around, just not here. There was also a strong storm that almost blew you off the summit. Unfortunately it was probably the wrong decision today.
With the current snow conditions, the descent south is …

Beautiful autumn tour that requires stamina and sure-footedness. In the summer it could get very hot because you hike in the direct sun in the upper part. When it rains, it can quickly become slippery. The view on all sides is incredibly beautiful and definitely worth the effort 👍

I was actually expecting more 🌞 today, but it was still a very nice round 😅 You don't need snowshoes, but crampons are highly recommended (you should always have them with you in winter anyway 😉)
From the Priener Hut (closed on Mondays/Tuesdays) I treated myself to a sledge (I met someone from the hut and asked) the descent isn't …

November 25, 2021,Wanderung auf den Geigelstein, den zweithöchsten Gipfel im bayerischen Teil der Chiemgauer Alpen

We used one of the last snow-free autumn days to hike to the Geigelstein, one of the most beautiful peaks in the Chiemgau Alps.

The varied tour leads over steep paths, forest paths, paths and forest roads through the mountain forest and across alpine meadows with great views.
