Best Hikes to Kegelkopf Summit

Tips

  • Exhausting path, but in retrospect it was great fun. I walked the tour from Spielmannsau via the Hintere Traufbergalpe (attention: the goats behind Alpe are curious, especially the lead buck!). Recommended only on dry surfaces. Otherwise you have to be more sure-footed than normal. The last 100 meters up to the Kegelkopf are not for the inexperienced. Sometimes you can only go up the mountain in "all-wheel drive mode". When you arrive at the top you are greeted by a bank and of course a great view. The route down to Christlsee is a long one and requires a high level of concentration and surefootedness. Bringing sticks is definitely worth it.

    Conclusion: The tour looked easy, but sometimes pushed me (62 years) to my physical and psychological limits. You should definitely be "suitable for burrs", which I guess I am no longer like I used to be. In addition, it is advisable to run with several here.

  • Beautiful view and hardly anything going on. Some peaks in the area look more spectacular when viewed from below, but actually it makes more sense to climb to a less spectacular peak when viewed from below and to look at the spectacular peaks in the area the other way around

  • Super panoramic mountain, you have almost all the dream mountains around you (Höfats, Trettachspitze, Großer Wilder, in the distance "Hoher Ifen", Säntis, etc. You can even see Lake Constance in foehn weather, definitely a great panorama. Really surprised me. How Dirk I am up on the east side, a good decision, as the short descent requires surefootedness, as it is very steep and the ground is not always reliable.You can therefore hold on to the ascent.
    @Dirk: Respect, at 62 I'm probably not as fit as you^^
