In June, when we passed here, no problem crossing the stream. Nice place to take off your shoes and cool your feet

Große Klammspitze Summit

Highlight • Summit

The Great Klammspitze (1,924m) in the Ammergau Alps is an imposing summit.
Coming from Linderhof Castle, a simple and sometimes monotonous path leads to the Brunnenkopfhütte, followed by a moderately difficult climb, which requires absolute surefootedness and vertigo. Shortly before the summit, the Klammspitze then awaits with a little surprise in the form of a light climbing point, which is however easy to master.
A beautiful and varied mountain tour with a fantastic view!

Feigenkopf (1,866 m)

Highlight • Summit

The Feigenkopf belongs to the northern foothills of the Ammergau Alps. It can be reached from the Kenzenhütte via the Bäckenalmsattel. Other peaks in the immediate vicinity are the Gruberkopf in the west and the striking Klammspitze. Even the Feigenkopf together with the Hirschwang high plateau offer a great view of the foothills of the Alps around the Forggensee and the Ammergau Alps.
