    The classic above Spitzingsee - the circular hike via the Upper and Lower Firstalm!

    The hike can also be done in the opposite direction. Various detours are also possible: for example, from the Upper Firstalm further towards Suttenstein or Bodenschneid, to Brecherspitz, or add another circular route around Spitzingsee! Basically, the round can also be done excellently in snow time, because then both roads to the Upper and to the Lower Firstalm are sledding runs. This facilitates the descent.

    Roadbook

    The ascent starts at Spitzingsattel and leads along the gravel road up to the Upper Firstalm. The 3 km long road runs moderately steep through the forest and is therefore also suitable for families with children. Upon reaching the Upper Firstalm, the path continues slightly downhill to the Lower Firstalm and from there further along alpine and mountain meadows slightly downhill to Spitzingsee. From there a short stretch along the lake and then slightly uphill back to the starting point.
