The Sonnenberggrat is a thoroughly alpine hike (T3), which requires a head for heights and sure-footedness. Avoid when it is wet and in winter after fresh snow! If the weather conditions are stable in winter and there is still snow in spring, only walk with Grödeln/light crampons, otherwise there is a high risk of falling!

Hiking

From the summit of the Sonnenberg, which is also known as the Sonnenspitz, you not only enjoy outstanding views of the Ammergau Alps, but also deep views of the Graswang Valley with the Linderhof Castle located there.

Mountaineering

A little climbing and a bit of a head for heights required. But the view of the Alps and the beautiful rock formations are worth it.
