Rötelstein Summit with lake view and views of Heimgarten and Herzogstand

Highlight • Summit

A nice hike, without any difficulties, on wide forest paths, up and down. Shortly before the summit (100/150m) there is a steep root path with a few rocks leading up. There is not much space at the summit cross.

Kaltwasser Waterfalls

Highlight • Waterfall

Wonderful place. Although the waterfalls are not that high, they look great. The path goes over a few bridges. Surefootedness is an advantage. If you are on your way to Heimgarten, you should take the small detour.

🍁 A beautiful autumn round with a great view of the Herzogstand & Heimgarten, as well as the Alpine foothills.
The cold waterfalls are a nice detour right at the beginning with a few bridges to cross.
You already get a first impression of the panorama from the fortress and the benches invite you to take a short break.

Easy hike up the Rötelstein. Not too crowded. Great view of the Heimgarten, the Herzogstand and towards Murnau and Lake Starnberg. You should be sure-footed for the last few metres. Time: no breaks, good fitness.
