Hiking

Anyone who has always wanted to cross borders when hiking is just right with the tightrope walk on the Dürrnbachhorn, because this is where the Bavarian-Austrian border runs. Surefootedness, stamina and a head for heights are rewarded with a wonderful panoramic view.

September 1, 2024,Winkelmoos Alm - Gratwanderung Dürrnbachhorn Runde

Day 2 of our hike and bike weekend. A really nice hike from the Winkelmoos Alm over the ridge and back😍

If only the chairlift weren't so expensive. But it's better to save money and take the climb. As soon as you leave the tarmac, you know it's getting steep. From the cable car's mountain station, the scree path winds its way up step by step through the mountain pines. Then, suddenly, you're standing in front of the summit cross. If …

Of course I started walking towards the Traunsteinerhütte, but I had no network.

If you want a beautiful hike, you've come to the right place. Everything is on offer. Moderate difficulty. The climb... no problem for experienced hikers... but for those who aren't, it's a sweaty climb. But you'll be rewarded with a superb view.

A beautiful circular hike starting at the Winkelmoosalm, following forest and root paths to the Dürrnbachhorn.
Fortunately, the clouds cleared a bit at the summit cross, allowing us to catch a few glimpses of the surrounding mountains.
Shortly afterward, the fog partially enveloped us again.
Which probably wasn't a bad thing, as the ridge path requires a certain head for …

We took the historic chairlift for the first part. The climb to the summit is tough 🤪
I would only recommend the route over the ridge to experienced hikers!
All in all, a great tour, but it pushed me to my limits!

There are 3 ways to ascend from the Winklmoosalm to the Dürrnbachhorn. We decided on the variant over the Finsterbachalm (1338m) and the Gimplingsattel (1528m), as you can enjoy a wonderful ridge hike with wonderful views in all directions, especially from the Wildalmschneid (1718m). After reaching the Dürrnbachhorn (1767m) one arrives at the mountain station of the nostalgia chairlift. We …
