Description

Description:

Starting from the Grän Enge parking lot to the Bad Kissinger Hut (overnight accommodation possible), route no. 411, approx. 2 1/4 hours, continuing to Aggenstein on route no. 411a, approx. 3/4 hours, ATTENTION!! Partial rope protection available, therefore surefootedness and lack of fear of heights are required, especially in wet conditions caution is advised. Return on the same path to the parking lot of the Bad Kissinger Hut, approx. 2 1/2 hours. Total walking time approx. 5 1/2 hours.

Directions:

From the parking lot go straight to the houses. First turn right and then immediately left again. Through the gate onto the pasture and continue following the markings to the Bad Kissinger Hut. Partly a bit steeper, but a beautiful ascent on varied terrain. From the hut to the summit is not far, but the climb should not be underestimated. Wonderful panoramic view from Aggenstein in all directions. The descent to the Bad Kissinger Hut follows the same path, then further downhill to the Sebenalm, which lies in a beautiful basin. On the opposite side of the basin, the path ascends again to the Lumberger Ridge. Here you can see chamois and marmots, sometimes even eagles. The further descent to the mountain station Füssen Jöchle with the Sonnenalm passes by the Gamskopf with the panoramic viewpoint information point. From now on it goes only downhill to Grän. Shortly before the bridge over the Logbach, the path turns right, towards Lumberg. Follow this path to the main road, then right and right again and so "Am Lumberg" back to the starting point. The descent from the Sonnenalm to Grän can alternatively also be taken by the cable car.

Tip:
Nice route with some great views and several places to stop for refreshments.Safety guidelines:
It should be noted that there is an increased risk of accidents and injuries in mountaineering. Despite careful route planning, a base risk always remains. Preparation through endurance training, appropriate technical training and further education, as well as personal caution, reduces the risk of accidents and hazards. But please never forget that the weather in the mountains can change very quickly. Stay on the marked hiking trails.Equipment:
Personal mountaineering equipment must be safe and functional and meet the respective technical standards. Every hiker is advised to inform themselves about the planned routes in alpine specialist literature or locally.
