January 28, 2024,Mariengrotte und Zirmgrat bei Traumwetter

A fantastic tour on a fantastic day. From the Breitenbergbahn car park you quickly go up to the impressive Mariengrotte, a simply overwhelming place of reflection🙏🏻
Continue over the Zirmgrat, which I find absolutely fantastic, over to the Salober. The Zirmgrat, if you don't miss the turnoff all the way up to the ridge, requires a good deal of surefootedness …

Today it is again a beautiful sunny day to climb the mountain to the castle ruins of Falkenstein. The ruins are at an altitude of 1287 meters and cannot be missed if you are in the area. The path to the ruins goes up via a narrow path. We can regularly enjoy the beautiful views of the valley, and then …

February 5, 2022,Falkenstein - Zwölferkopf - Salober :-)

After we were only out and about in fog at the time, today it was time to do this tour in the sunshine. But from the other direction and side.

A beautiful hiking trail leads up to the Falkenstein. The last piece to the castle always feels as smooth as a slick *lol* From here we put on Grödel.

October 31, 2022,Falkenstein -Zwölferkopf-Salober- Alatsee

In fantastic weather on a slightly modified tour from @Tanja Alpenzauber
First up to the Falkenstein. Beautiful path, but a lot going on.
The view from the ruins is simply fantastic, and the Zugspitze also shows itself from its most beautiful side.
Then on to the Zwölferkopf and Salober. Beautiful, varied path, the view is bombastic. Then we decided to …

July 30, 2024,Falkenstein - Zirmgrat ( Einerkopf, Zwölferkopf, Salober)

Start at the Pfronten Steinach car park, up to the Mariengrotte and the Falkenstein. Today we tackled the Zirmgrat. It is described as T 3. (Einerkopf) Was easy to do and very varied. The further route to the Salober is not difficult. Descent via the Zwei-und Vierseenblick to the Saloberalm. From there it is a bit of a long walk …

January 15, 2023,Salober, Burg Falkenstein

This morning I was thinking about whether it's worth going to the mountains because the weather wasn't the best. But it was better than expected and the tour was worth it. I started in Pfronten/Steinach, when you have crossed the railway tracks, there is a small free parking lot just before the bridge over the Vils. I only had wind …

May 29, 2024,Falkensteiner Ausblick – Vierseenblick Runde von Pfronten-Steinach

I always like the Zirmgrat with the Falkenstein. Today I took the climb from Pfronten. I really like it. (It was a tip from my son ☺️) On the way back I deviated from the suggested route (the cycle path would have been asphalted and without shade ☹️.

March 9, 2022,Einerkopf, Zwölferkopf, Salober (via Zirmgrat)

Nice afternoon round with @derklein and Miss Emma. Our way over the three peaks led along the ridge - plus pure sun and a brilliant view.

The path directly on the ridge requires a head for heights and sure-footedness. If you are a little less thrilled, you can take the normal route (easy hiking trail). With the latter, however, you …
