Heimgarten Summit

I recommend to go to the mountain during the week, there is less going on.
The Heimgarten is not as frequented as the Herzogstand (mountain railway!), But because the ridge …

June 22, 2024,56 Heimgarten - RWF Isarwinkel 🪨
All in all, what a fantastic and extremely strenuous tour. We actually wanted to take it easy, but who cares what we said yesterday :)
The climb to almost 1800 meters was really arduous. Narrow paths, always winding but always with fantastic views, really demanded almost everything from us.
Meter by meter, the paths went up and almost seemed to …

Beautiful, sweaty tour at around 30 degrees. Luckily there was a lot of shade and some cool streams in the lower area 🥵

First slightly higher tour for this year. The spring-like temperatures of around 12 degrees had to be taken advantage of. 😎The paths have everything from snow-free areas to slush and ice.

The home garden with its magnificent view. I would never have thought that it would be so beautiful. All-round view of the wonderful Bavarian lakes.
However, quite steep ascent and descent

Today was another really nice round of fun with @Manfred ☕. 🤗
It started from Ohlstadt along the Kaltwasserlaine... much nicer than the forest road! The path goes to the Bärenfleckenhütte, then further in serpentines to the Heimgarten ⛰ (1791m). From up here - but also actually the entire route - you have an incredibly beautiful view of the 5-lake …

Varied circular hike to the Heimgarten.
Ascent right next to the cold waterfalls, descent via the Rauheck and the Buchrain.
Unfortunately, there was hardly any view, but there was little going on and I actually had all three peaks to myself.
The drizzle at the waterfalls and later the fog on the forest path to Rauheck were somehow appropriate and …

See so many lakes... all in one mountain hike!
Thanks to the icy temperature on the ground and good snow conditions, no sinking, only a few ice sheets and therefore easy to do even without snow. The view from above is magnificent! Not just the many lakes as a cycling area in summer!
Very nice tour from Ohlstadt train station.

Nice round with little traffic. Grödel, however, make the many icy spots much easier. Otherwise perfectly groomed and not to be missed.
