Spieser
isn't a high mountain.
It's on the German side just outside Tannheimer Tal,
close to the alpine border. But it's
a beatiful area and we choose
it to avoid incoming rain
early in the day. |
We park
the car in Oberjoch (1140m) at 7 in the morning. Sören sets up
a good pace towards the forest. |
A view to the south as we rapidly gain
altitude. We walk fast to do as much as we can, before the rain comes.
|
|
|
|
| It doesn't take long, before we
can see the
cross of Jochschrofen above. |
At
Jochschrofen (about 1560m) after just 50min. |
We
don't stay here for long, but press on towards Spieser (left)
och Hirschberg (right).
|
|
|
|
| The
reason for our hurry can be seen here. Just across the valley
we can
see low clouds and rain over Sorgschrofen/Zinken. |
But now it's not far to Spieser, the summit
cross is up there. |
Jochschrofen
is behind us now. There's a descent of 50 altitude meters before the
climb to Spieser. It's easy walking all the way.
|

|
|
At the
summit of Spieser after 1h 10min. Normal
time
should be more than that. |
Down
there! |
On
our way down we pass the hut Hirschalpe at 1493m. We are able to take a
diffent route back so it's a round trip, always an extra plus.

Beautiful
views down to Bad Hindelang as we take the trail
"Panoramaweg" back to Oberjoch. Just as we get back
to
the car the rain begins.
Perfect taiming, getting a good day
in the mountains by starting early! |
