May 6, 2023,🩵🏔️🤩Schönjöchl

A really cool tour with @derKlein

Difficulty: T3

From the Plansee campsite it went up over the Seewinkel.
Now on we go steadily uphill.
Half way up it got completely overcast and started to rain. Then turned around first, only to turn around again when it ripped open again and climb the descended 100 meters again *lol*

Beautiful, quiet tour with wonderful views of the Zugspitze and Säuling, Köllenspitze and Kohlbergspitze, Geierköple and Hochschrutte. And of course great views of Plansee and a bit of Heiterwanger See.

Thanks @Christian N - Allgäuer for the inspiration. 🖖👍🖖

We started at the Musteralm (place Plansee), parking 5€ for the whole day. Then follow the Geierköple-Steig signs. Flat at first, …

Schönjöchl how beautiful was that?
Fantastic mountain weather and the Plansee is indescribable. Beautiful and the higher we went the more fascinating the view of the lake.
At the Plansee viewpoint wow
🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
I could have sat there forever in the sun and looked at the lake.
Descent via the Zwerchenbergweg is beautifully exposed and missteps are fatal in the …

March 5, 2025,Schönjöchl 1661m

Today I had a wonderful, very sunny and very lonely tour to the Schönjöchl. I started at the Musteralpe car park (parking fee €5) and chose the rather steep south-facing path to the Schönjöchl for the ascent. I had to stop again and again and enjoy the view of the Plansee. Unfortunately there is no summit cross on the Schönjöchl. …

Super nice tour, even if the ascent was not easy with many roots and steps. We continued up and down through a beautiful forest path with many huge anthills. The Zwerchenbergalpe is not managed, but scores with crystal clear drinking water. The way back via the Schönjöchl leads again and again over beautiful viewpoints of the Plansee. Overall, a very …

Excellent round with @J.T.97 and Arne. 😎 Snow and leaves alternating, a key point on the Zwerchenbergweg, otherwise very pleasant. Great views anyway! It's skiing again! 🤩

February 18, 2024,Plansee Schönjöchel, Ammergauer

So you have to take about 4 hours of time with you. The 2:40 is perhaps an optimal net time. But I stayed sitting at the Plansee lookout for a long time. The lake creates a Canada feeling. The descent is a real T3 very narrow path. Missteps are not allowed. I would take children on a cord. Otherwise a …

Years ago I had the idea 💡 during a diving break 🤿 at the lake, when the weather is nice 🌞 the peaks ⛰️ to hike around the Plansee 🏞 🥾.
Today was the right 🤩🌞 day ✌️👍 again.
Would I hike the same way again, first the steep part and after the summit break (without a cross) relaxed on …
