Surefootedness and a head for heights are an absolute must. Hiking sticks can remain in the backpack as hands are required to hold on to them. Wire rope is installed in many places to hold on to.

With 1876 meters the second highest peak on the degree of the northern Rauhhornzuges.
The view of the surrounding mountain landscape is huge. The path to the Iseler summit requires not only certain surefootedness.

July 10, 2025,Gratwanderung Kühgundspitze – Iseler Gipfel (1876 m) Runde von Oberjoch. 10.7.25

Thinking about this tour and the impressions it brought back give me goosebumps again.

One of the most beautiful hikes I can remember.

From Oberjoch, we headed directly from the mountain station parking lot into a small forest, and soon reached the Schmugglersteig trail.
After a beautiful section, we climbed to the Iselergrat.
Along the ridge, we hiked to the …

In good weather, a very nice hike with currently (August 2023) 2 of 3 accessible via ferrata sections (Edelrid 1&2), which are popular and frequented. A pleasure in dry weather, which is rewarded with a beautiful view.

Finally mountains again. On the way to the Tannheimer Tal we stopped in Oberjoch today. After it stopped raining around 1 p.m., today's tour took us over the Kühgundkopf and the wonderful ridge path to the Iseler. It was quite windy and cold, but dry and we even got a few rays of sunshine from time to time.

What a day! Today we wanted to hike "properly" in the mountains again and chose a template of @KISS, @HAm 🧭 and @Patrick Göser. Thank you three! 😍👌👍
The slight difference was that you were out and about in the heat of August.
Yesterday the peaks were snowed, at night it was minus 1 degree in the valley and definitely …

August 8, 2025,Kühgundspitz und -kopf über Nordgrat/Iseler von Oberjoch

Today was our first time climbing the north ridge of the Kühgundspitz. It was really fun, a bit of scrambling, and practically all of it was secured by ropes. At the top, we continued past the Kühgundkopf to the Iseler, and then descended to Oberjoch.
Before that, we stopped for a break at the Wiedhag Alpe. It would probably have …
