Zinken 1613m, Germany 31/3 2016
Youtube clip






  After parking the car in Unterjoch (2,50 Euro), we walk around the southern
  side of the mountain, until the summit is visible ahead of us. Here the summit
  cross can be seen, high up in the middle.
  I think the northern alps have a beauty of their own. They are not the highest, but
  there are many lovely places here.






  Reaching 1400m.   Now we've reached the ridge,  following it towards the summit.





  It's fairly steep in the higher parts. Here we have reached the climbing section,
  secured with wire a bit higher from here.
  Sören climbing trough the narrow gulch.





  From here there is an additional steep section towards the summit. The snow
  makes it more difficult, and we have to remove it to reach the wire.
  Looking north, towards the twin summit Sorgschrofen, 1636m.





  A view from the summit. This is no mountain for beginners, even if you don't
  have to use a harness and helmet to climb it. But some experience of steep
  climbs is preferable.
   It's really beautiful up here! This is the western opening towards Tannheimer Tal,
   Austria
