One of my favorite tours when the weather is beautiful. 🥰 Bissle already knows from above that climbing from the south is no problem, but you have to be careful when descending to the north.

First of all: The Grüntenhaus is only open Friday to Sunday until November 3rd.
It was lovely again. I took advantage of the last rays of sunshine this morning. And as always, there was hardly anyone around. I'm glad!

That was super! Beautiful Kraxelei coming from the south. Then via the "key point" in the direction of Grünten Haus. Before turning off and back to the parking lot. Sure-footedness and a head for heights is a basic requirement.

Snow is almost gone, only a few small boards could be seen off our path today. 😉 After the ridge it was a bit muddy and slippery. All in all, a wonderful tour, for which you should definitely be sure-footed and not afraid of heights! ⛰️

Today, however, I was somehow a bit impaired in terms of fitness. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Well, that can happen. But it was still nice.

Completely free of snow and the Sahara sand was limited today.

The short classic in the Allgäu with easy, partly exposed scrambling in the summit area.

Before the weather gets worse again, we head back up to the Hörnle. As usual, first over hill and dale through the forest and then across to the summit. The tour is currently completely snow-free. Only when the rocky sections begin, shortly before the destination, …
