Small Waterfall on the Herzogstand Trail

Highlight • Waterfall

The route is scenically very varied and due to its orientation to the south, it is still well walkable into the late autumn.

Super nice view of the lakes and the Alps. Unfortunately very crowded on Sundays and public holidays. Few hikers, many day trippers...

Herzogstand summit and views of Walchensee and Kochelsee

Highlight • Summit

The Herzogstand offers fantastic views of some lakes in the north and the Walchensee and the Alps with all the mountains in the south. Fantastic in winter as in summer.
