Bavarian Alps in July

Post by Traveler »

The thread of our route: flight Kiev-Munich-Kiev, carried out by the airline "MAU". By train from Munich Airport to Munich Central Station, travel about 50 minutes. On the central Munich railway. at the train station, transfer to the train to Mittenwald, about an hour and a half to go.

At the airport station of the S trains, which are taken from the airport to the city, we bought a Bavarian ticket (Bayern Ticket) for two at the box office. This pleasure cost us 33 euros. 2 times cheaper than regular tickets, very profitable and convenient, I recommend. On the way back from Mittenwald to Munich Airport, we bought the Bavarian ticket ourselves from the ticket machine. The machine turned out to be 2 euros cheaper. For two for 31 euros.

Mittenwald is a fabulous village surrounded on all sides by forests, mountains and lakes. This is an ideal place for a summer holiday for those who do not like the heat, but love mountains, forests, lakes and rivers. Mittenwald itself is pleasant to explore, slowly wandering through its quiet streets, among wonderful houses with paintings on the walls, and flowers on the balconies and windows. By the way, the emerald river Isar flows through Mittenwald. Already familiar to us, thanks to walks in the English Garden in Munich.

We arrived a little tired from Munich already in the evening, settled in our guest house, which is very conveniently located in 2 minutes. walk from the station. Next to tourist information office. And also within walking distance to both cable cars, and the beginning of routes to the mountains and lakes. Shower and toilet are shared between two rooms. This allowed us to save a little on the cost of the room. We paid 311 euros for 4 nights for a double with breakfast. Our room had a washbasin and a hair dryer, which is very convenient, since you could wash and brush your teeth and dry your hair in your room. In addition to towels, there were also huge bathrobes in the room, in which it was convenient to use the shower. In a word, there was no particular discomfort due to the amenities on the floor. Considering also the fact that we only spent the night in the room. We left at 7.30 for breakfast, then for trekking, then to a restaurant. As a result, at best, we got to the guest house after 21.00 in the evening. Our cots were comfortable enough, or so it seemed to us after walking 20-25 km every day on rough terrain. But the pillows are worthless, spreading all over the surface of the bed. I had to somehow crumple them, and constantly knock them out so that at least something was under their heads. Also in our room there was a rather large loggia, all decorated with colorful geraniums, with a great view of the mountains.

Despite the late arrival time from Munich, that evening we still went for a walk along the Leutaschklamm - Geisterklamm gorge. We followed the trail signs. Signs are everywhere, at all forks, it is impossible to get lost. Since we were tired, we walked slowly. Half an hour later we came to a cafe at a mountain farm, with a beautiful view of Mittenwald below. We took coffee and water with ice and lemon. Cheered up, and stomped on. Along the way, there were many educational installations for children. There are all sorts of interesting gizmos even on suspended bridges along the gorge. Lots of fun for both adults and children. The views below your feet from the hanging bridges over the gorge are sometimes so breathtaking that your hamstrings tremble. In general, at times it was dumb, but very beautiful and informative. Definitely recommend.

In general, we climbed through the gorges for about 3 hours. We returned to our guest house, took a shower, changed clothes and went to look for a cafe. There are many of them in the town. From 19.00 to 20.00 everything is packed everywhere. After 20.00 you can find free tables. We found a free table in an Italian cafe. Ordered onion soup and vegetable soup, risotto and ravioli. The onion soup was disgustingly cooked, the vegetable soup could be eaten. Everything else is so-so, oversalted, but the portions are huge. Which we have not mastered even up to half.
In the center of the town, not far from the tourist information, we found gelateria. Where, well, the ice cream was very tasty, compensation to us for not the best dinner.

In the morning we had breakfast at our hotel. Not bad, and satisfying, everything is served on beautiful plates. Breakfast is partly buffet style, but some are served individually. I, contrary to custom, ate cold cuts and hard cheeses, as well as traditional yogurt, coffee with milk, and orange juice. In the mountains, the appetite is always brutal. On this day, we wanted to go a long, specific, circular route along the "blue" trail. The blue circles on the signs indicate simple paths that are accessible to any healthy person.
The route revealed to us an indescribable beauty, and no photos or videos can convey it.
We walked along routes No. 271, 262, and 260 went down to Mittenwald.
route map. More difficult trails are plotted in red, simple ones in blue. There are black and very difficult trails not for beginners, and not for those who are afraid of heights.

We got on the route from the lower station of the cable car around 8.30. We walked slowly, admiring the views everywhere for a long time, and sitting down on benches.
At 13.10 we arrived in Hochlandhutten along the beautiful route 262. This hut is an alpine tavern for trekkers. Almost every table outside is occupied. But we were lucky, there was a place in the shade.

We ordered dumpling soup and apple pie, coffee and ice water. And for about an hour they enjoyed rest and food. In the book in which the menu is, there is information that products and other necessary things are delivered to this hut every three days by helicopter. Despite its inaccessibility, most of the tables were occupied by trackers of a very respectable age. Seems to be 60 or older.

But after about 30 minutes of walking, I came across several creepy places where I had to hold on to the ropes, and in general it was easy and unconstrained to fall into the abyss. We once happened to walk along more terrible paths in the Caucasus and in the Himalayas. And without any cables. True, that was many years ago, and I have already lost the habit of such extreme sports.

After several stretches that frightened me, a high-quality safe trail went on right up to Mittenwald.

The next day we wanted to take a walk to the lakes. After breakfast and a short gathering, we walked to the lower station of the chair lift. The lower station of the Hoher Kranzberg lift is visible from the balcony of our guesthouse room.

At the station, we pay one way fare - 6 euros one ticket. And at 9 am we rise to the upper station, among the first tourists. The views along the way were very beautiful. From the upper station following the signs, we specifically choose a longer path to the lakes. We stomp and enjoy the surrounding beauty and clean air.

But already at about 13.00 we were on the second lake, which is closer to Mittenwald. We rested on the shore of the lake and had a delicious lunch in a classy restaurant with local grilled fish.
