I recommend to go to the mountain during the week, there is less going on.
The Heimgarten is not as frequented as the Herzogstand (mountain railway!), But because the ridge path is not heavy, there are already some over there who would not "torture" without the train.

Herzogstandbahn Mountain Station

Highlight • Rest Area

In just a few minutes you will float with the gondola up to the mountain station. Already at the driveway you have a fantastic view of the Kochelsee.

From the mountain station it is only a few minutes to the mountain inn Herzogstand. From there, a trail leads in serpentines to the summit of the Herzogstand and from there as an exciting tightrope walk to Heimgarten.

Children (6 to 15 years): Ascent and descent 6.50 euros, one-way trip 4 euros

Family ticket (parents & a child): ascent and descent 26 euros, one-way 16 euros

All further information can be found at herzogstandbahn.de.
