Assumption of Mary Chapel, Hammersbach

Highlight • Religious Site

Little pretty chapel Maria Assumption. Benefactor Benedikt Bader wanted to give "a place of consecration to his hometown" and donated this Marienkapelle, which was consecrated on 5 March 1901. For the inhabitants of Hammersbach their chapel is the spiritual center. They appreciate and care for their chapel. But many hikers also start or end their day tour with a visit to Our Lady and light a candle.

Trögelhütte

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Trögelhütte is located in the "Alpspitzarena" in the Kreuzeck / Kreuzwankl slope ski area at the junction of the Olympia and Kandahar slopes and is one of the largest huts in the Munich section with 28 beds.
In winter, the base offers alpine skiing pleasure at its best. In summer there are excellent mountain tour destinations, via ferratas, as well as sport and plaisir climbing routes in the midst of the impressive rocky landscape of the Wetterstein Mountains.
The comfortably furnished Trögelhütte is ideal for a family stay with children of all ages.
