Schnappenkirche and view of Lake Chiemsee

Highlight • Religious Site

The climb to the Schnappenkirche is definitely worth it. We started from the Mühlwinkl car park and had a fantastic view of Lake Chiemsee.

Schnappenberg Summit Cross

Highlight • Summit

The view is underwhelming as it is a peak in the forest. But it's nice and quiet.

Zwölferspitz Summit

Highlight • Summit

The ascent past the Hochlerch is very steep and, in wet weather, slippery because of the many roots.
The transition towards Zwölferspitz is a bit to climb and not secured!

When I come from the Hochgernhaus, I stop here to see Lake Chiemsee.

The Hochgern, at 1,748 meters, is a brilliant vantage point on the edge of the Chiemgau Alps. You can climb it via simple paths and treat yourself to something special at one of the alpine pastures as a reward. From the summit of the Hochgern, the Chiemsee lake lies almost at your feet. The panoramic view is fantastic in good weather – whether over the lowlands or into the surrounding mountain ranges like the Kaisergebirge.

I started with Cleo🐕 in Staudach, the hiking car park is free😀.
For this round you should be sure-footed and not afraid of heights, good 🥾 are also recommended.
It gets steep🥵 and the path is overgrown with tall grass, at times I wished I had my scythe😁.
You are rewarded with a great view of Lake Chiemsee and the …
