Zugspitze Gipfel - Höchster Punkt Bayern

If you intend to climb the Zugspitze from Ehrwald and take the train back down, you should first inquire about the operating hours of the Tiroler Zugspitzbahn.

Several times a month a fondue evening takes place on the Zugspitze, where the train runs until 9.30 pm. So you can take your time on the climb and miss the big bustle, if you reach the summit after 5 pm.

The course can of course be used if you do not participate in the fondue evening. The ticket can be bought directly before the start of the trip at the summit. In fine weather you can admire the beautiful sunset on the Zugspitze and the summit belongs to you, with luck, all alone.

Information on the extended operating times can be found on the page of the Tiroler Zugspitzbahn under the heading "Events".

Here you should get up pretty early, because as soon as the train opens, the most famous summit in Germany is flooded with tourists.

When hiking from the glacier to the seats, the path forks to the right, it is easier to keep to the right, the left is high alpine.

More strenuous but rewarding climb to the Zugspitze. Certainly not suitable for everyone, since there are some difficult sections here.

The inexperienced should go the via ferrata from the Wiener-Neustädter Hütte to the Zugspitze only with via ferrata. This is especially true when snow is.

Quite a long and strenuous ascent to the Zugspitze, but it is worth persevering in the end, as the summit gives you a wonderful view.

Through Höllental on the Zugspitze currently only with crampons. Without it, it is extremely dangerous to impossible on the naked ice on the Höllentalferner. There are some climbers back without crampons.
At the Randkluft currently several meters (about 5-6) must be climbed freely without security. Is for the only via ferrata goers a challenge.

The ascent via Stopselzieher with overnight on the Knorrhütte and subsequent descent via Reintal and Einkehr in the Reintalangerhütte is a nice weekend tour and durauchaus to recommend.

If you want to go up, you should prepare very well. For "flatlanders" this is no easy hike

It's best to go during the week, the summit is completely overcrowded

beautiful gilded summit cross, which has the form since the first ascents.
Quite a lot of people up there on the small spot of the summit and also on the way there. Nevertheless, a summit photo of the highest mountain in Germany must not be missing, especially if you have run from the very bottom (Ehrwald in my case) up to.

First a very steep gravel field, then Kraxelei high to the ridge - exhausting but worthwhile due to the views in any case.

Because it's just breathtaking ...

Duch Höllental a great tour, only at the gypsum cross it is too filled.

Great view from the highest mountain in Germany. The summit is easy to reach, but I can recommend the ascent of Ehrwald, or the Zugspitz Arena. Super mountain tour with high alpine elements and the via ferrata Höllenklamm. The panorama is unique

If you don't want to run, you can take a highly modern cable car, around 50 euros.

A great experience in summer and winter. In winter you have to expect not to come up.

The Höllental is really a challenge.

A mega distant view in good weather.

The subsurface should not be underestimated. That takes strength.

Now sticks a Komoot sticker ;-)

Should one have been, in Germany at the top.

The view is unique and it is a must for every mountain fan

What a view. gloriously
