Between Mittgern and Kramerspitz, partly steep and rocky. Sure-footedness is essential. The path is not very wide and in some parts the terrain drops steeply. In summer you often have to share the path with sheep.

The ascent via St. Martin and descent via the Stepbergalm becomes a great round trip on the Kramer. Again and again great views of the Zugspitze massif. Demanding path due …

November 13, 2021,🅿️ Kramerspitz ↗️1985 m ü. NHN 🅿️

Our reward: unbelievably beautiful panoramic views, including the Zugspitze and a complete panoramic view on the summit! Journey from the Spessart approx. 4 - 4 1/2 hours. The goal was the Kramer peak, at 1985 m above sea level. NHN. We started at the Maximilianhöhe car park. Our route was the southern route (very beautiful sunrise) and the sun was …

Mega beautiful tour over Felsenkanzel, Kramersteig,
Stepbergalm and descent via Gelb Gwänd Steig.
Unfortunately, the Stepbergalm was already in hibernation.

August 6, 2025,Kramerspitz Rundtour

Early this morning, I set off from the free parking lot just before Maximilianshöhe to the Kramerspitz.
The weather was mixed all the way up to the summit: sun, fog, and a bit chilly. I thought the cooler weather was ideal for mountaineering, but unfortunately, I had little view at the summit.
The paths in the forest were a bit …

December 22, 2021,Kramerrunde (Winterbegehung)

Fortunately, I learned from my failure at the cat's head and was able to use the icy, well-lit night to leave early. 4.30 a.m. march off (Andy, how do you always do that 🙈). In the dark it went today on the normal route to Mittergern (completely without headlamp). The plan worked, the existing tracks were frozen hard and the …

Demanding mountain tour. For me as a lowland Tyrolean. The ascent is extremely demanding. As soon as it gets flat, take a break. It's still a long way to the summit. Definitely stop off at both huts 😁 I started at 8 and was back in Grainau at 21. With breaks. Surefootedness You should be free from giddiness. Heavy exposed …

August 17, 2023,Kramerspitz-Runde ab und nach Untergrainau

The Kramerspitze offers a very good view of Garmisch-Partenkirchen, the Wetterstein mountains with Alpspitz, Waxensteinen and Zugspitze and the Eibsee below.
A stop at the Stepbergalm is recommended. Tip: The fruit buttermilk with wild berries.😋
Very refreshing.

September 18, 2021,Kramerspitz-Runde von Grainau

It's a long, exhausting tour to the Kramerspitz. Since we don't like to go the same route twice, it was a circular route that was rewarded with a stop at the Stepberg Alm. On the way there are almost constant breathtaking views of the Wetterstein Mountains with the Zugspitze, if the clouds allow it. Unfortunately, we were only lucky enough …
