The Hohe Ziegspitz is a very worthwhile destination with few people. Wonderful, varied landscapes and beautiful flora and fauna.

If you ascend and descend from the Garmisch-Partenkirchen animal shelter via the Kreuzweg or the Gelb Gwänd Steig to the Hohen Ziegspitz, you can stop at the Stepbachalm on the way there and / or back.

highly recommended tour, little used, fantastic panoramic view in all directions at the top. Good to walk in dry conditions. If there's snow and ice, it's best to dally and be very careful.
The changing forest is particularly beautiful (old pine trees below, then mixed forest of sycamore, spruce and beech trees, mountain pines above).
