During
a short visit in Munich
get one day to spend in the
Alps. After some changes of plans I eventually find
myself
here. The peak
Jochberg rises behind the lake
Walchensee. |
The
parking places on 850m are full, but I can find a place
for my
car
a bit further down. From 860m you enter the
forest, with a clear and
easy path to follow. |
The
higher I get, the more snow there is. I have no snowshoes this time,
and no spikes. But I meet paople going down with no equipment. Well, I
guess it's okay then...

As I reach 1450m, it opens up and
gets more
beautiful.
Many people up here, on this lovely saturday. |
Jochberg
is the last peak before the flatland to the north.
Down there is the
village Kochel and the lake Kochelsee. |
Just a
short bit left to the summit now.

You
follow the ridge the last bit. In the background, to the
right is
Herzogstand 1731m and Heimgarten 1788m.
Down to the left is the
lake Walchensee. |
The summit cross of Jochberg 1565m. |
Far
away, in the middle is Zugspitze 2962m.

Someone
relaxing with a lovely view. |
South
of Walchensee, in the middle of the picture is
Westliche
Karwendelspitze 2385m. The town Mittenwald
is over there. |
Benediktenwand
1801m, to the east.
