Travel Information
The very challenging hike starts at the Wimbachklamm parking lot and leads via the Wimbachschloss mountain restaurant to the Wimbachgrieshütte and then up to the Hirschwieskopf. The tour oneway takes 13.5 kilometers with an elevation gain of around 1550 meters. This means a distance of 27 kilometers and an altitude profile of over 3000 meters. Only experienced and well-trained hikers with mountain experience should tackle this stage. The last ascent, which is just under one kilometer long, is also quite steep and slippery, especially when it is wet on the mountain, so you should be particularly careful here. It is generally possible to stop for the night at the Wimbachgrieshütte. There is also delicious food and something to quench your thirst here. You can also fill up on water here.
