      Below the Watzmann east face is the deepest permanent ice field in the German Alps: the ice chapel! Although the summer snow line is almost 2,000 meters higher, this firne ice field exists all year round.

      You should really only do the last part with good hiking boots. Very difficult terrain

        What a panorama, the Watzmann and the ice chapel, definitely with hiking shoes🥾 help, which we sometimes came across for reckless people.

          A helmet is advisable because ice and boulders keep falling down
