July 30, 2022,🇦🇹 Tirol - 7. Tag: Lermoos - Tuftlalm - Upsspitze - Daniel- Tuftlalm - Lermoos
“The Daniel, high above Lermoos, is the highest peak in the Ammergau Alps. It forms an impressive summit duo with the neighboring Upsspitze. From the summit cross, the Zugspitze massif is close enough to touch, the view of the mighty block of rock is really impressive.” This is what it says on the website bergwelten.com.
So there was no question …

Today I hiked from Lermoos to the Daniel. At first I was quite unsure whether the weather over the fog would be reasonably good, but then I left anyway. At first it was very cold, but when I was above the fog, beautiful sunshine and "warm" temperatures awaited me. The tour is great and not particularly difficult, there is a …

October 11, 2025,Daniel Berg
Tanja and I once again ventured out on a hike with a crazy group.

This time it was Daniel.

So we all met up early at the swimming pool and hiked over the Tuftlalm and past the Grüner Ups to the Upsspitze.

From there, it's just a stone's throw to Daniel.

Very nice, but also strenuous hike with almost 1300 meters of altitude. Especially the last climb from the Green Ups to the Upsspitze was very steep. When the weather is nice, the panorama has to be sensational. Today all the surrounding peaks were hidden by clouds, also the neighboring Daniel could not be seen. This was actually the goal of …

A lot going on today... well, if you can still hike sunny and almost snow-free at 2332m at the end of October, then it's not just us who are attracted 😅
Very nice hike from Lermoos, past the Tuftlalm through the many pines on the green Ups and from there in the ever-increasing wind on the Ups 😬
There were …

We had planned this tour to get in the mood for the Zugspitz ascent and actually wanted to climb Daniel as well.
But due to the unfavorable weather conditions of the last few days (rain, snow), we shortened the tour for safety reasons.

Last day in Leutasch. Finally, today the highest mountain in the Ammergau Alps => The "Daniel". We start from Lermoos and walk relatively steeply through the forest in 50 minutes to the Tuftlalm and cover 400 meters in altitude. Then the path gets rockier bit by bit, but never difficult (max. T3). The sun is beating down on us on …
