Kreuz am Herzogstand

Fantastic view. The 2-lake panorama is particularly beautiful. In addition, you have a wide view of the shallower and many lakes. A unique experience.

Breathtaking view from up here, pure nature

Very nice ascent, unfortunately also very busy.

With the cable car up to the hut and then about an hour ascent via serpentines to the pavilion. From above you have a fantastic all-round view of the surrounding mountains. To the south you can see all the way to the Stubai Valley and admire the glaciers. For the way there, I would suggest sturdy shoes, it goes over roots and thick stones.

“Each of these crosses can tell its own story and what prompted people to erect“ their ”cross at this point. (...) These crossroads have been erected as visible signs and attract the looks of many people. The cross is a symbol of life. It stands as a sign of our Christian hope and wants to direct our gaze to Jesus Christ, who overcame death (...). The cross is part of our life, just as it was part of the life of Jesus. So I wish that many people ... visit the crossroads, whether as places of silence and breathing before God, whether as places of congregation meeting, prayer and praise of God. "

Wonderful view over the lakes

Not the highest point of Herzogstand, but it’s a cross to check out! The view from below is also impressive.

Here you have a direct view of both lakes.

Here you have a direct view of the whole lake all around

The climb is worth it

The climb is worth it

A very, very nice hiking tour!

Very nice pleasant tour.

Beautiful views of the Alps and the Walchensee.

The steep ascent is rewarded with a fantastic view of the Walchensee and the Kochelsee. In summer, however, you have to reckon with a strong rush here.

Pure nature! The climb is worth it.

The tour was definitely worth it!!! But you should better go during the week because the route is very crowded!
