The sunset 🌅 on the Herzogstand is an absolute treat. Pure goosebumps and very impressive and incomparable, no matter what time of year.
My favorite for sunsets.

View of Lake Walchensee

Awesome view, but difficult with fresh snow. My toughest tour so far. Stuck up to the thighs in the snowdrifts. Extreme wind conditions at the summit. Certainly a great highlight …

The Jochberg lies with 1565 meters height in the Bavarian Pre-Alps between Walchensee and Kochelsee. During the Würm glaciation, it was a nunatak, a mountain whose peak protruded about 150 m from the ice stream. (Source: Wikipedia)
