Herzogstand Heimgarten hiking

Leave a comment

Hiking up Heimgarten and then going across the ridge to Herzogstand is one of the most spectacular hikes we have done so far. It’s pretty strenuous and takes almost 5 hours – but absolutely worth the effort!

In the upper left corner you can see Herzogstand, a small hut that had been built by King Ludwig II because of the great view across Walchen- and Kochelsee
