Jochberg Summit Cross

Highlight (Segment) • Summit

Each of the summit crosses one often encounters in the mountains—as here on the Jochberg—whether with or without the body of the crucified Christ, invites passersby to a brief spiritual rest. Perhaps one or another will be able to encounter God here in a brief prayer. As a prerequisite for a completely different mystical experience of encountering God, beyond such a small sacred monument, Hape Kerkeling, who made a pilgrimage on the Camino Frances in 2001, writes: "I am becoming freer here every day (...) Through all the emotional frequencies, I slowly tuned myself into one frequency and had a wonderful reception. Total serene emptiness is the state that creates a vacuum that God can then completely fill in a relaxed manner." (Hape Kerkeling in "I'm Off Then")

The Water Steps

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Lots of steps up to the fork in the path (Jochberg or Jocheralm).
Be careful, there is a risk of slipping! In some places a stream flows over the steps. Be careful here, especially in winter, but also in summer, as ice can form or the wooden beams of the steps are slippery.

View of Lake Walchensee

Highlight • Viewpoint

Awesome view, but difficult with fresh snow. My toughest tour so far. Stuck up to the thighs in the snowdrifts. Extreme wind conditions at the summit. Certainly a great highlight when the sun is shining and the paths are visible. Will test it again in the summer 😊

View of Walchensee and Kochelsee from Jochberg

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

At first through the forest relatively dark but after the first 20 minutes the forest clears and you get a nice view of the Kochelsee. The steps are relatively exhausting in the beginning, but after the first warm-up, you got used to it. At the weekend is relatively busy here but the paths are so wide that you can always overtake or can be overhauled.
At the top of the reward follows with a great view over the Fünfseenland, as well as to the south side over the Walchensee and the mountain range.
After a little refreshment on the jochbergalm direction Walchensee again relatively steep downhill. Surefootedness is required here. Finally, let your feet refresh in the cool Lake Walchensee. Then follow the last few meters back to the parking lot.

Saturday in beautiful weather ☀️to the Jochberg?
Actually, not so much!
Still decided to try it with a friend today😅.
The journey around 9 a.m. was still relaxed, but the 🅿️ search was already the first hurdle. Thanks to my 🚙's good off-road capability, there was still room in a pile of snow. 7€ for the day ticket🥴.
Icy wind …

December 27, 2021,Afterwork Jochberg oder "wie Dora 🐶 fast zum Flughund 💨🌬🐶🦇 wurde"

When the work was done, the mountain called 🔊⛰! So quickly packed Dora and jetted to the Jochberg ... unfortunately the weather changed quickly and when I climbed the summit I felt like I was in a wind tunnel 💨🌬I put Dora on a leash at some point so that she wouldn’t take her to Munich with the next storm …

Tour to my liking. 😊
Cows, mountains, lakes and a varied path.
Unfortunately the thunderstorm caught up with us and we had to go back.
At the summit cross you could endure for a long time and enjoy the landscape.
