December 13, 2024,Winter Wonder Wank 🤩

We made good use of the weather and visited the Wank again. As you can easily see, it was worth it 👍

By bike to St. Anton and then on foot. The ascent was pretty tough, until about 1,500 hm the snow ❄️ was there as a continuous blanket. The weather was much better than yesterday.

I like the Wank 🏔️... no matter which side you walk from you always have a fantastic view 👀! The climb over the Eckenberg is steep, but there is little traffic and the view to Lake Starnberg is a dream!
Unfortunately, the Wankhaus was well attended, so we just made ourselves comfortable on the wall of the house in the …

It was time again for the Wank and for a reward in the form of a delicious goulash soup.

February 21, 2023,zum Wank 🏔️🚶☀️☀️

In bright sunshine we start at 9:30 a.m. from the climbing garden on the Wank. The paths are already pretty snow-free. Nevertheless, the ascent is given as 3.5 hours, quite exhausting. At point 12 we reach the summit and the impression that it is warmer up here than below does not deceive us, inversion weather conditions.
The gondola is out …

"Wank again," as the advertisements say. Why not? 🤔 It's been 13 years since I was up there 👆. The timing couldn't have been better than today. Perfect weather and relatively few people around. Starting next week, that will change drastically, when the cable car starts operating and brings thousands of tourists up every day.
Nevertheless, as with almost everything …

January 3, 2024,Alle Jahre wieder Wank

Taking advantage of the nice weather and vacation. I chose the climb over the Farchanter Kreuz. After I got out of the spruce trees and into the mountain pines, I unpacked the Grödel for an easier climb. I then met @Barkus at the summit. I didn't even recognize him with the hat on 😂 We spent the descent rattling.
