View of Hoher Ifen

Highlight • Viewpoint

Look directly at the Ifen. If you are lucky you will discover some chamois. I tried to take pictures, unfortunately my camera is not good enough and you can not see much.

Gottesacker Plateau near Hohen Ifen

Highlight • Natural Monument

Fascinating karst landscape that requires sure-footedness when hiking in summer. In winter, there is a comfortable winter hiking trail here, when the jagged rocks have disappeared under a meter-thick layer of snow.

The view here is magnificent in every season.

The ascent to the Hahnenköpfle is easier and easier than the ascent to the Ifen. From the summit you have a wonderful view over the Gottesacker plateau.

October 22, 2023,🇦🇹 Von Ifen I auf's Hahnenköpfle

Summer was simply too short 😅
That's why today I took advantage of one of the last opportunities to go to Hahnenköpfle with my dad. However, since I didn't want to get up that early, I stayed with Hahnenköpfle. The Ifen summit and the Gottesacker plateau will have to wait until next year 🙃. The Hahnenköpfle got a new summit …

Short and intense 😉, the weather made the tour challenging. Wet from above and below, greasy path and slippery stones demanded everyone's attention. But even under these conditions, the tour was a nice experience.
