Description:
Enjoy the view of the Tannheimer Tal. During this hike there is always a beautiful view. Passing the Berghotel Zugspitzblick you will dive into a piece of forest where nature is completely untouched. The stretch up to Schönkahler is not very busy. There you will find peace and quiet and can forget everyday life for a short while.

Directions:
From the car park follow the signs to Zugspitzblick. The asphalted path goes steadily uphill through Zöblen to the Obere Halde. Here is the Zugspitzblick Inn. When visibility is good, you can see the Zugspitze. From now on the path continues on a gravel path. A good forest road, not too steep, brings us further up. Suddenly it becomes even and we turn right. In front of us we can see the Einstein massively. Immediately afterwards the signpost points to the left. Over grass-covered hills we enter the forest. First a little uphill, then slightly downhill, over two wooden footbridges and back up again, we reach the so-called Alter Hof with the Salzstadel, an old wooden hut. Now it's uphill again, on the Rehbichl and the Pirschling. From the plain in front of us you can see the Pfrontner Alm on the lower right. Up here there are mostly some horses on summer pasture. Soon the summit is reached after a moderate climb. Since the Schönkahler is not too high, the view from up here is surprising. The way back is the same way. After a short stop at the Zugspitzblick, the last part of the way down to Zöblen is soon finished.

Tip:
From the wildlife observation stand with telescope at the Zugspitzblick you can almost always see wild animals.

Safety guidelines:
It should be noted that in mountaineering there is an increased risk of accidents and injuries. Despite careful route planning, a basic risk always remains. Tour preparation through endurance sports, appropriate technical training and further education as well as personal prudence reduces the danger of accidents and risks. However, please never forget that the weather in the mountains can change very quickly. Stay on the marked hiking trails.

Equipment:
The personal mountaineering equipment must be safe and serviceable and meet the relevant technical standards. Every hiker is recommended to obtain information about the planned tours from specialist alpine literature or on site.
