Birkkarspitze was actually not my plan for this weekend, but as I could not do the hike I had planned in Innsbruck, this was a nice plan B.

Mittenwalder HĂśhenweg with T-Rex costume!
Last weekend I joined a quite bad-ass hike; Mittenwalder HĂśhenweg. Mittenwalder HĂśhenweg is a via Ferrata over a ridge in Karwendel. There is an option to take a cable car up, but then it would not be a badass would it? So we hiked 1900 hm up from Mittenwald! That is the most height meters... Continue Reading →
