The nice landlady wasn't lying when she said: "Our pine is the best in the valley and on the mountain!" Treat yourself to a bargain and oil your own engine ;)

At 2,725 m, the Bettelwurf is almost 2,500 m above the Inn Valley and offers an incredible view of it. There are also great views of the neighboring Karwendel peaks such as Hochnissl, Birkkarspitze and many more, and in good weather you can also see well towards the Stubai Mountains. The ascent can be made either via the Bettelwurf connecting path (via ferrata with difficulty level C/D) or more easily via the Eisengattergrat (via ferrata A/B). Both ascents are very beautiful, but the former requires a little more via ferrata experience. The Große Bettelwurf is a very distinctive and well-known mountain peak and is often climbed in conjunction with an overnight stay in the Bettelwurf hut. If you want to avoid crowds, you should set off early (or later in the afternoon).

Distinctive peak above the Inn Valley. A little climbing is required if you want to reach the summit. It is up to you whether you climb via the Hundskopf East Ridge or the Felix-Kuen-Steig. Personally, I would classify the East Ridge as somewhat more difficult due to the entry, but both are short and doable if you have some via ferrata experience.

A majestic peak that towers over the Inn Valley and overwhelms you with its breathtaking panorama. Every effort of the climb is rewarded when you let your gaze wander over the rugged beauty of the Karwendel.
