An honest endurance day: 1,071 meters of elevation in one go, T3 at the top — no via-ferrata ego, just getting up, going up, coming down.

Before you go

Quick notes for your backpack brain.

Parking
Free, right at the start — at the Wurzenwirt.
Food stop
Afterwards at the Wurzenwirt by the parking lot — it’s top.
What it’s like
Wild, quiet, overgrown in places. T3 at the top — sturdy shoes & sure footing.
Who it’s for
A good fit if you like endurance days (1,000+ m of elevation). Probably not for a quick after-work summit.

The whole loop as a video on Instagram — starting point in Maps.

My take.

Very natural, remote and properly overgrown in places — no hiking highway. But at the top, a really beautiful view of the Berchtesgaden Alps. It drags on a bit in places, but that’s exactly what keeps it quiet. Set off at 7:27, nobody else out, my longest loop so far.
