Hiking Straight from the Farm

The Schwarzenberg rises just east of Hundham, and you can walk up it from the farm. The Leitzach river and Birkenstein are also within walking distance of the front door. For the Breitenstein, the Wendelstein and the mountains around Spitzingsee you drive a little way or take the bus.

The Schwarzenberg (1,187 m)

The path starts at the hikers’ car park on Feilnbacher Straße in Hundham. It is 1.2 km from the farm, so just under a quarter of an hour on foot.

The way up follows forest tracks at first, then narrow paths full of roots across meadows to the Schwarzenbergalm for the last third. Drinks are left out in the alm’s day room on an honesty basis, and there is no staffed hut along the way. From the broad summit with its cross, benches and a picnic table you can see the Wendelstein and the Breitenstein, and as far as the Kampenwand in the Chiemgau.

You come back down the tarmac road on the south side, which leads back to Hundham. Thanks to this road the mountain can be reached in any season. For a longer walk, make a loop via the Tregleralm, where you can eat, and return via Deisenried.

Leitzachtaler Bergblicke circular walk

This signposted premium trail starts in the centre of Fischbachau, about 5 km from the farm. On the west side it runs along the flat valley floor beside the Leitzach and crosses the river on several bridges.

In the east the loop becomes a higher path along the foot of the Schwarzenberg, passing the Schwaigeralm to the Birkenstein pilgrimage chapel and then dropping back down to Fischbachau. It is signposted in both directions.

Birkenstein and the Breitenstein

Birkenstein is about 6 km from the farm, on foot or by car. With the guest card you park for free at the hikers’ car park there, and the normal route up the Breitenstein (1,622 m) starts next to the pilgrimage chapel.

It climbs past the Kesselalm (1,278 m) with its little chapel and the Hubertushütte (1,535 m) to the summit cross in about two hours. The Hubertushütte is open in the summer half of the year.

On the west side of the mountain is the Breitensteiner Fensterl, a natural rock arch protected as a geotope and natural monument. The best time for the Breitenstein is May to November; in winter you have to expect snow and avalanche risk higher up.

Up the Wendelstein

You can climb the Wendelstein (1,838 m) on foot or take a railway up. From the cable car valley station in Bayrischzell-Osterhofen it is about three hours’ walk to the summit. The cable car is 14 km from the farm, the rack railway in Brannenburg 18 km.

At the top a summit path leads to the cross, and there are also the Wendelstein chapel, the Wendelstein cave and the observatory. The guest card gives you €2 off the return trip, and bus line 349 around the Wendelstein is free for you. There is more about the railways on the summer page.

The mountains around Spitzingsee

Around Spitzingsee, about 20 minutes by car, you have the Rotwand (1,884 m) with the Rotwandhaus, the Bodenschneid with the Bodenschneidhaus, and the Brecherspitz. The Taubenstein gondola saves you part of the climb, and the guest card takes €2 off the return trip.

Routes with maps and descriptions are in the tour portal of the Tegernsee Schliersee region.

Easy walks by the Leitzach

For half a day with children you do not need the car. From the farm you can walk to a café with home-made cake, to a Bavarian inn or down to the Leitzach, where a paddle in the river is lovely on warm days.

The west side of the Leitzachtaler Bergblicke loop is flat as well, following the Leitzach along the valley. What children can do on the farm itself is on the family holidays page.

Parking, buses and maps

With the guest card you park for free at the hikers’ car parks in Birkenstein, Elbach, Hundham, Lehenpoint and Deisenried, either through the Parkster app or with the paper permit behind your windscreen. Buses and trains in MVV zones 6 to 9 are free with the card, including the Wendelstein loop bus.

If you are bringing your dog, please read holidays with your dog first. The road on the south side takes you up the Schwarzenberg in winter too, and the cross-country trail and sledging slope are on the winter page.
