Gratweg vom Herzogstand zum Heimgarten

This ridge is absolutely gorgeous. Views to the north on the many lakes such as Ammer, Starnberger, Kochel, Staffel, Riegsee and the Osterseen. Southwards on the Caribbean-looking, turquoise Lake Walchensee and on all the mountains of the Alps ... Some delicacies in the form of Kraxelstellen offers the ridge as well. I was certainly not here for the last time! Dizziness, sure-footedness and suitable footwear are recommended!

This tightrope walk can only be recommended. Not too exhausting and with a great view.

Tip: from the car park Herzogstand Bahn up to the Herzogstand, on the degree to Heimgarten, stop there and then go down comfortably until you arrive at the other end of the parking lot. Great round trip.

determined already gone 10x but always cool

A wonderful tour, absolutely absolutely recommendable !!!

Those who are not free from schnundling or sure-footed should avoid the ridge. What I especially noticed during my tour were tourists, who went by train to the Herzog booth, and then were on the ridge with flip flops (!!) or sandals! That is not how it works! Alone because one should be the role model for the little "young hikers"!
So please only sturdy shoes ...

Whoever comes here will be rewarded with a great view. Both on the lakes, as well as on the mountains and cities.
I can only agree, please be sturdy shoes and free from giddiness. I have attached some photos of the most difficult paths. In sum, feasible and rather slower, even if there are trail runners on the way. It's worth it.
For smaller children in my opinion less - not suitable.

Ingenious ridge with great visibility. Surefootedness is required! Do not wander in bad weather!

I have already gone this tour very often. But I always go to the Heimgarten and then to the Herzogstand. I like it better. Great prospects. There is also a nice snowshoe tour on the Herzogstand.

Always wear good shoes. There can be a lot of snow on the top although it is sunny and dry downstairs :)

It's pretty nice, but it's the most beautiful when the season is over and you go during the week.

unfortunately a bit crowded by many tourists, with flip-flops .. quieter during the week. Nevertheless, the entry for the beginning of the year very well.
Before the Kramer is tackled * hihi *

Great tightrope walk - nice to walk. Take jacket, it is sometimes very cold. Trekking poles and fixed hiking boots are required. It's really fun.

The ridge is good to go and easier than previously thought. Something should be sure-you should be, but not difficult.

This is next to the climb to the Jochberg the most beautiful tour in the region. However, we always go by train to the Herzogstand, then walk over the ridge to the home garden, return there, run back over the ridge and go down by train again. If you start with the first train, you will be at Walchensee at 3.30 pm, without having to go through the joints with your descendants.

The warning on the signpost should be taken seriously!

Tightrope walk with many far and deep views

Highly recommended tour along the Berggrades.

The tour can also be done very well "backwards". So by train, over the ridge and from the Haimgarten then back to the parking lot.

A very nice tour with a great view.

Grandiose view of the Walchensee.

Fantastic views on both sides of the ridge. The equipment should fit and the advice for experienced should be taken seriously, then it will be an unforgettable mountain hiking experience.

The view you can enjoy from there is breathtaking. But you shouldn't underestimate this section. Possible with dogs, but great .. You shouldn't take the one with a head for heights so lightly, right and left it goes down steeply. : D
But the view is really indescribable, especially in the morning hours. I was lucky that almost no one was there. It was indescribably beautiful !!! 😍

5 years ago in September, I went for the first time on this tour. My start was the Walchensee further to the gorge about 1 hour. Continue to Heimgartenhütte about 3.5 hours. From there, the ridge path to Herzogstand. The way there is a narrow exposed trail. From the Herzogstandhaus I went down with the cable car.
