Large Stoißer Alm Loop

The Teisenberg, a mountain located between Inzell and Siegsdorf (both in the Traunstein district) as well as Teisendorf and Anger (both in the Berchtesgadener Land district), in the border region to Salzburger Land, is the northernmost thousand-meter peak of the German Alps and belongs to the Chiemgau Alps. Its highest summit is called Schneid and is 1333 m high. The top of the Teisenberg is flattened and rounded, has forested slopes, and offers a view of the northern Northern Limestone Alps of East Bavaria, which rise about 500 meters above it. Additionally, there are views down to the Högl and the Austrian state capital Salzburg.

Below the summit at 1270 m elevation is the popular Stoißer Alm, favored by hikers and mountain bikers. It is open year-round and usually operated from May 1 until the end of October. Also located on the Teisenberg is the Bäcker Alm at 1067 m elevation, which is also managed from May to October.
