Weather 🔟 Physical condition 3.
That's more or less how it can be put after the very little sleep.
Reason enough to bake small rolls. The body didn't want to get up or go to the mountains 🏔️.
The woman's wish is her kingdom.
Just drive 210km each way to experience this view.
Everything done right, especially when looking at …

June 20, 2024,Schnelle Wanderung auf den Ameisstein am Almsee ⛰💦

Before the trail running seminar in Almtal, I did a short hike up the Ameisstein. I would classify the tour as moderately difficult, as it is quite steep uphill over root-filled forest floor. In many tour descriptions I read "easy", which I would not agree with. In any case, it was a beautiful hike with a great view.

The small Brunnkogel from the Ödseen was actually on the program, but access to the Ödseen was closed due to hunting.
So we decided spontaneously for the Almseerunde and the Ameisstein, since we haven't seen the new summit cross yet.
Nice cozy soul migration.

Suddenly we felt like going on a hike together. Since my wife had never been to the Almsee, we decided to go in that direction. Not a difficult hike, but with first-class views! Excellent views of the lake, Rotgschirr, Zwölferkogel and Fäustling. Photos from the low Ameisstein look like they were taken with a drone. At the end of the …
