    The Breitenstein is a 1661 m above sea level. A. high mountain in the Chiemgau Alps, over which the border between Bavaria and Tyrol runs.
    The summit of the Breitenstein is about 1.3 kilometers south of the Geigelstein (1808 m). Like this one, it is located between the Prien valley in the west and the Tiroler Ache in the east.

      Beautiful summit with a rustic summit cross. Beautiful views, for example to Geigelstein, the valley of the Tiroler Ache and above all to the Wilder Kaiser.
      A nice tour is crossing a double summit: from the Priener Hütte first over the Geigelstein, there an exciting descent to the Breitenstein, and from there back to the Priener Hütte or over the Wuhrsteinalm into the Achental.

          Beautiful summit, view almost like on the Geigelstein but it is much lonelier here

            The Breitenstein (1,662 m) is a prominent peak in the Geigelstein massif of the Chiemgau Alps in Bavaria. It lies south of the famous Geigelstein and offers impressive views of the Kaiser Mountains and the surrounding valleys. The ascent is usually from Sachrang or Ettenhausen over idyllic alpine meadows and mountain forests. Compared to the neighboring Geigelstein, the Breitenstein is quieter and less frequented, making it a popular destination for hikers who appreciate nature and tranquility. Especially in early summer, the region is known for its rich alpine flora.

              A nice summit with a beautiful view. It is not as crowded as the Geigelstein.

                Super nice view in every direction... including the Achental.
