 | Bettlerkarspitze
20. 07. 2020 21:18:28
Little-visited summit at Plumsjoch - Nice easy mountain tour to the visited but not overcrowded fore-summit, then distinctly more alpine across to the main summit, which you'll often have to yourself. In good weather surely a beautiful viewpoint, in fog a bit fairy-tale like. - In any case a quieter... |
 | Winter hike | Lacherspitz & Seewandköpfl
18. 12. 2021 17:15:42
Snow conditions rather poor again, so preferred mountain boots over ski boots and from Sudelfeld on foot up to Lacherspitz and over to Seewandköpfl. Up directly there, through the snow a bit strenuous, but alone at the small summit cross. Then comfortably back to Sudelfeld - a nice half-day tour.... |
 | Kreuzeck on skis via Hausberg
18. 12. 2021 19:26:13
Simply way out left over Bayernhaus up to Hausberg and then the normal ascent track to Kreuzeck - just as boring as repeatedly beautiful - you have to like it. What else can you do when natural snow is a bit too little?... |
 | Rewarding traverse with a solitary approach | Viererspitze via Kreuzklamm
27. 07. 2020 05:22:27
The Viererspitze in the western Karwendel doesn't get excessive visitors anyway. Up the front Kreuzklamm in almost roguish streambed scrambling is pure fun (if dry!), mostly I, some spots II. The southwest ridge is the finest easy climbing (II, entry IV - the entry can be bypassed to the right); alt... |
 | From Schildenstein to Halserspitze | Blaubergkamm
2. 08. 2020 11:55:09
Lonely through Gerlasgraben, up to Schildenstein, then across Blaubergkamm to Halserspitze and down the north descent there. Not too difficult circular tour - done on the (so far) hottest day of 2020, recommended for stable September days; seven to eight hours should be allowed:... |
 | Suspension Bridge of Superlatives
28. 08. 2020 17:44:42
Nepal bridge, over 120 m long, about 100 m high - an airy and unique pleasure in Valais. However, not an everyday approach, but via a sporty via ferrata at Jegihorn in Saastal.... |
 | From Monte-Rosa-Hütte over the West Ridge (with Richi Arnold) | Dufourspitze
6. 09. 2020 16:42:17
The highest summit of Monte Rosa, a dream goal for many. The normal route from Monte-Rosa-Hütte over the west ridge is breathtaking in every way, and the views reward the hours of trudging over the glacier before the exciting ridge ascent begins. The last hour is more demanding than it looks from be... |
 | Lyskamm Traverse (Short)
1. 01. 2022 19:16:24
Over Lyskamm from west to east with Dani Arnold (short version to sample) - Really a grandiose tour, even with stormy winds... |
 | Welcome to Georg Brun (Trailer)
7. 01. 2022 13:33:42
A new welcome trailer for everyone checking out my channel for the first time - with images from 2021... |
 | Risser Falk (A Lonely Little Giant in the Karwendel)
15. 09. 2020 21:03:35
No, Risser Falk in the Karwendel is actually no secret tip. It's just a lonely mountain. Hardly anyone finds the way up - compared to the many parade mountains in the Karwendel that get plenty of visitors. - Who wants to be alone: in Falkenkar it is; more ibex than mountaineers. - Why? Falkenkar can... |
 | Speckkarspitze Traverse (full tour from and back to Halleranger Haus)
20. 09. 2020 19:33:03
Speckkarspitze is a popular mountain - we met ten mountaineers at the summit. It's also a beautiful viewpoint. But more importantly, traversing it, ascending the southwest ridge (sections I/I-II, partly airy) and descending the northwest ridge (normal route, tricky sections wire-secured), makes it a... |
 | Plaisir Route at Piccolo Dain | Dolomite Horizons
11. 10. 2020 12:16:37
Climbing in Arco: the selection of multi-pitch routes is almost inexhaustible. Rightly, Orizzonti Dolomitici at Piccolo Dain near Sarche is very popular: varied, secured almost like in a climbing garden, sunny. And mostly in the lower 5th grade - pure easy pleasure.... |
 | Over Fieschersattel to Finsteraarhornhütte | Großes Fiescherhorn
24. 10. 2020 18:39:02
A tour from April 2017 as an appetizer for 2021 - when the Bernese Oberland is only a risk area for ski mountaineers due to possible avalanches (let's hope!).The most exciting and beautiful approach to Finsteraarhornhütte is from Jungfraujoch over Fiescher Sattel (avalanche conditions must of course... |
 | Relaxed Ski Tour from Praxmar | Lampsenspitze
20. 01. 2022 18:36:12
Up to the saddle below Lampsenspitze there is a ski touring educational trail - that alone shows that the tour is also suitable for beginners. Nevertheless, you have to climb almost 1,200 vertical meters to the summit and then have a proper half-day tour with the descent.... |
 | Kohlgruber Hörnle Short Trip
23. 01. 2022 15:29:54
Short but nice is the repeated trip to Kohlgruber Hörnle - in fog and little snow even as an absolute short trip up the piste to above the chairlift and then back down over natural snow and some grass. Once in 90 minutes, unlimited repetitions possible. On Sunday you're of course not alone...... |
 | Kreuzwandspitze 'Airy Edge'
2. 11. 2020 18:55:31
Vorderes Dammkar on November 1st: snow and chamois, and then, far in the back on the southeast ridge of Kreuzwandspitze, a casual climbing route at grade 4: the 'Airy Edge'. Just right for a good mountaineer putting on climbing shoes for the first time in their life.... |
 | Relaxed mountain hike | Staffel loop in Jachenau
8. 11. 2020 16:56:49
'Lockdown light' - seeking lonelier paths again: Here the Staffel loop in Jachenau, a relaxed nice half-day mountain hike that is quite solitary with its consistent west ascent; on a glorious sunny November Sunday via the normal route from the east, however, well visited. Overall, Staffel still dese... |
 | Schellschlicht traverse
29. 11. 2020 18:25:37
An ambitious mountain hike behind Garmisch-Partenkirchen, a beautiful traverse over a not too visited mountain - all on the south side and snow-free for a long time. From the summit nice views into Wetterstein and Mieminger and across to Ammergauer.... |
 | Brauneck via the piste 12.12.2020
12. 12. 2020 15:06:32
Currently the glory is over; no more snow down below - too bad, but c'est la vie!Going up to Brauneck at the start of winter is a classic for Munich folks. Last year I posted a film for a nice variant. This film is just a snapshot for interested people: what does it look like in lockdown? You may go... |
 | Sascha Wallot, a tragic hero - Reading from 'Bodenloser Fall'
30. 01. 2022 09:00:15
For literature lovers among us: Nine minutes reading from the Munich crime novel 'Bodenloser Fall' - It's about the tragic hero in this novel, about Sascha Wallot and his crash while mountain biking; the film also plays a bit with the images of this chapter and the 'moving pictures' are a bit humoro... |
 | Nice Brauneck loop | Idealhang and more
5. 02. 2022 20:30:14
Does one need to say another word about a tour on Brauneck? - No. - All said, all filmed. - Still: From Draxlhang comfortably to Bayernhütte and Stiealm, up to Idealhang, then seek out natural snow slopes (a bit of powder left), skins on again at Bayernhütte and then to Schrödelstein and its short e... |
 | Notkarspitze from the South
19. 12. 2020 19:45:08
Snow shortage in the Bavarian pre-Alps - what now? Put on mountain boots and from the south to Notkarspitze, a beautiful and surprisingly solitary tour. Most come up from Ettaler Sattel, but on 19.12.2020 there weren't many either.... |
 | Dôme de Gouter & Descent from Gouter Hut
25. 12. 2020 19:40:10
Dôme de Gouter (4304 m) - perhaps the least spectacular 4000er in the Alps. Bad weather on Mont Blanc a year ago - summit search with GPS and then turn around at Dôme de Gouter. Instead, some impressions from the hut descent.... |
 | Winter hike from Fischbachau | Breitenstein
1. 01. 2021 18:05:42
Too little snow for off-piste ski touring - what to do? Winter hiking. On New Year's Day no need to overdo it - so a half-day tour to Breitenstein. Recommended; dumplings would help, but today it went fine without. Up via Kesselalm and down Bucheralm with quiet Bockstein makes a nice loop right on M... |
 | From Sachrang on foot | Spitzstein
2. 01. 2021 17:30:08
Hardly any snow - nothing new! So the ski tour to Spitzstein from Sachrang just on foot. Not so bad - what is fun in summer works in winter too. Still: when walking over the sugar-coated slopes, you'd love to be on skis. - Three tough tourers even did it - but then you really can't spare your skis r... |
 | On the Zahn with powder
12. 02. 2022 16:05:29
Nice little tour in Ammertal - to the Zahn via Kolbensattel. With a bit of fresh snow the last days, almost a winter dream in some places and up top there's really a little powder.... |
 | In the skies over Brauneck
13. 02. 2022 16:35:05
Today the sky is no longer full of violins, but full of paragliders, and 'normal' skiing is just too boring - impressions from Brauneck on a sunny Sunday... |
 | Fresh snow makes it possible | Skiing Kampenwand
16. 01. 2021 16:02:56
A week ago there was really too little snow, but we made it to the summit. Today with fresh snow it was good on skis, but due to lack of visibility it ended at Steinlingalm. - When no lifts are running, almost everyone goes via the piste, and on the classic ascent route you have quite some peace. - ... |
 | Ideal slope at Brauneck (treat for ski tourers in these times)
24. 01. 2021 16:49:20
Everyone knows Brauneck and it's beautiful in its own way again and again - today here so to speak a conditions report across Stiealm to Idealhang, a little treat a bit off the standard route. Currently nice up and down - the family descent is then 'a bit bony'.... |
 | Heimgarten on skis
13. 02. 2021 20:26:21
On skis from Ohlstadt to Heimgarten - a historic classic, nowadays a somewhat neglected tour. Ski-wise, from the summit down the first north slope to below Rauchköpfl is a treat, with luck still powder right up to Käseralm, the rest of the descent mainly on the forest road ... Because of the descent... |
 | From Fall | Lerchkogel (Karwendel)
20. 02. 2021 19:34:46
In search of more solitary winter mountains: Lerchkogel in Karwendel, from Fall up the Dürrachtal. A rather infrequently visited ski tour, but not to be viewed from descent perspective, as the slopes available are limited, and the first 4 km on Dürrachtal road best by mountain bike (with really lots... |
 | Scheinbergspitze
1. 03. 2022 19:30:22
No insider tip, not at all solitary - still a beautiful easy ski tour in the Ammergau Alps, right behind Linderhof. In the forest still surprisingly good snow.... |
 | Fernpassrinne & Eastern Kreuzjoch
5. 03. 2022 17:29:37
The Eastern Kreuzjoch is no summit one must know, moreover the ski summit is completely unspectacular. However, it features a beautiful steep summit slope (up to 42 degrees), which, as long as it still has sun after noon, can nicely crust up. The ascent overall is very scenic and quite demanding - u... |
 | Over Wasserspitz and Rinnerspitz | Bodenschneid
13. 03. 2021 17:04:10
Another Munich house mountain, as winter ascent on a beautiful ridge path over Wasserspitz and Rinnerspitz, past the memorial for the poacher Jennerwein. The higher you go, the more beautiful the views. Gaiters are helpful, the track is not very trodden - unlike the normal route, where there's a nic... |
 | Three Hörnle in Kohlgrub
21. 03. 2021 17:05:33
Fresh March snow, above tree line avalanche warning level 3, no sun - nevertheless it should be a comfortable ski Sunday morning: Why not up to the three Kohlgrub Hörnle? The lift isn't running due to corona, so up the piste, then to the middle Hörnle, down over a much too short deep snow slope and ... |
 | Kramer complete traverse
5. 04. 2021 18:45:33
A highlight in the Werdenfelser Land is the complete traverse of the Kramer ridge from Königstand over Katzenkopf and Mittergern to Kramer and then to Steppbergalm. From Bayernhalle along Kellerleitenweg and then straight up to a hunter's path (moderately signposted, very solitary, narrow and steep)... |
 | Circular tour from Schliersee | Baumgartenschneid
11. 04. 2021 16:15:25
Ski tours are no longer really feasible and mountain tours have a bit too much snow right now, but the sun beckons and one wants to move. So a nice small Munich house mountain. - Why not Baumgartenschneid? Comfortable and up top with surprisingly beautiful views. From Schliersee over a hunter's path... |
 | Schöntalspitze (Sellraintal)
14. 03. 2022 06:01:36
Praxmar and Lüsens: Two sonorous names for valley villages leading to beautiful ski tours. One of the more comfortable ski tours is Schöntalspitze from Lüsens over the north side - now with a new forest ascent for black grouse protection, perfectly signposted. Then a long high valley in the morning ... |
 | nameless side summit) - Praxmarer Grieskogel (Here
15. 03. 2022 20:00:27
A comfortable 'Sunday stroll' in Praxmar, quieter alternative to Lampsenspitze, and a bit shorter - that's the way to Praxmarer Grieskogel. Since there was quite a bit going on at the summit, we went to a nameless side summit and had a beautiful slope to ourselves.... |
 | The dream ridge of Munich house mountains for mountain hikers in spring | Over Heimgarten to Herzogstand
26. 04. 2021 20:44:49
For every ambitious mountain hiker a dream goal of the Munich house mountains: the path from Heimgarten to Herzogstand. This time with a beautiful snow ridge in spring, a special experience. And, hard to believe: the ascent from Walchensee to Heimgarten quite solitary and even on the ridge a managea... |
 | Up East Ridge, down West Ridge (Normal Route) | Brecherspitz Traverse
28. 04. 2021 20:22:31
Another Munich local mountain The route via Firstalm and West Ridge is known, today our descent (and never really lonely). The East Ridge is less known and quite solitary, but the Jägersteig is always nice to follow and with some beautiful views you quickly go up the mountain; at some spots you bri... |
 | From Unterammergau, North-South Traverse | Teufelstättkopf
8. 05. 2021 17:53:25
Towards Pürschling you're never alone nevertheless the tour from Unterammergau via the north ascent to Teufelstättkopf and then south over Pürschlinghaus back down is a beautiful mountain hike that's already good to go early May 2021. For the good walkers among us a half-day tour, better start earl... |
 | Osterfelderkopf on foot
12. 05. 2021 16:39:44
Actually it should have been up the via ferrata, but there was no proper track and the snow very mushy so only Osterfelderkopf, but at least quiet and leisurely feeding ravens and admiring a toad.... |
 | From Saas Grund to Hohsaas
29. 03. 2022 18:01:50
End of March, hardly any snow in Saastal. From Saas Grund first on foot, then at the edge of the piste to Hohsaas some impressions are still nice.... |
 | April Powder in Saastal
2. 04. 2022 16:55:18
Overnight good 25 cm new snow then you simply have to seek some untouched spots and accept the trail breaking. Powdering where you walked yesterday.... |
 | Normal Route, without Gmelch and Teufel Towers, without 4er Crack | Kampenwand Traverse
1. 06. 2021 21:03:33
It's probably really one of the absolute classics for Munich mountaineers who want to touch some rock but not climb harder than just over 3: the normal route over Kampenwand from west to east without the two pretty photogenic towers and via the easier north approach to the main summit. A nice abseil... |
 | Impressions from Gmelch and Teufel Towers | Kampenwand Towers
3. 06. 2021 19:59:41
On the Kampenwand traverse, the Gmelch Tower and Teufel Tower beckon. Here the start of the ridge to Gmelch Tower, a harder affair (6-), which one can bail out via the beautiful crack dihedral to the left (I did it in the middle). Then impressions from the entry to Teufel Tower, around 3 enjoyable c... |
 | Over the Selle Couloir the entire Nadelgrat via Hohberghorn and Stecknadelhorn | Nadelgrat
28. 06. 2021 20:07:35
For the Nadelgrat you sometimes wait years for perfect conditions they don't exist! Nowadays decisive is whether the Selle Couloir is safe or not. If it goes, expect more or less snow while climbing; rarely is the ridge itself snow-free then. We had fresh powder snow well. Makes it a bit more exci... |
 | Normal Route | Fletschhorn
7. 07. 2021 16:02:18
It was long considered a 4000er, then its head was cut twice. Now at 3984 m it's 'only' a very high 3000er. That has advantages: you're almost alone on the way and the tour is varied with magnificent views. We were four and could go everything from the moraine with crampons on the normal route; soo... |
 | Ski tour in the Aiguilles Rouges | Col du Belvedere
15. 04. 2022 01:22:54
Ski tours in Chamonix plenty on offer, especially eye candy: In the Aiguilles Rouges you repeatedly have views of the Mont Blanc massif and, with south-facing slopes, a good chance of spring corn snow if you descend in time. Here the relatively comfortable tour to Col du Belvedere above Lac Blanc.... |
