September 7, 2021,🇦🇹 Wilder Kaiser; Ellmauer Halt und Gamshalt von Wochenbrunnalm

The sum of the vertical meters in the ascent and descent are correct. Unfortunately, the start and summit height do not match. Unfortunately, my tracker has an offset here. The starting height at Wochenbrunner Alm is 1085m and the summit height of Ellmauer Halt is 2344m.

I used the day today to go on a hike. I was thrilled, but when I got to the top, it was very windy and clouded over. Looking at the other side, there were also slightly darker clouds, or maybe it was because of my sunglasses. In any case, I didn't stay up there too long. On the way down, …

The Ellmauer Halt, the cursed woman. Started from the Wochenbrunner Alm. Ascent to the Gruttenhütte about 1 hour quite steep on a relatively rocky path through the forest. Then on to the Ellmauer Halt. About 30 minutes to the point where the final ascent really begins. Well secured with wire rope and other metal at the necessary points. Helmet compulsory …

Annual ascent of the damned woman.

This time with my brother. I've already described the route. Nevertheless, a few more words that caught my attention today, partly because of my brother. From the start at the Wochenbrunneralm, the path is always rocky and gravelly. I hadn't noticed that until now 🤪. Komoot documents absurd walking times. We weren't moving for …

August 16, 2022,Bergkraxelei zum Ellmauer Halt (2344 m) - Wilder Kaiser

A mountain tour that had everything: clouds, sun, normal hiking trails, scree fields, ladder, ironing path, exposed areas with and without safety gear and a lot of rock contact. Since the limits are shown at about 9 hours walking time. Great tour, which is high in our ranking 👍🗻
