On the Kramerplateauweg, you hike without any significant climbs from Pflegersee via the War Memorial Chapel and the mountain inn Almhütte (also known as Windbeutelalm) to Grainau. You can hardly stroll more beautifully on any other hiking trail than on the Kramerplateauweg. It winds along the south slope of the Kramerspitz and offers wonderful views of the Ester, Karwendel, and Wetterstein mountain ranges.
Author’s recommendation
Be sure to stop at the mountain hut and try the cream puffs there.

From Farchant train station, walk towards the Hotel Alter Wirt. You cross the street and follow the path past the ice cream parlor and town hall. Before the church, turn left into Schulstraße and follow the signs over the Reschberg meadows to Pflegersee. From here, the path gently descends southeast through a light forest. After about 45 minutes of walking, you will reach a large clearing with the picturesque War Memorial Chapel. Numerous memorial plaques of missing or fallen soldiers decorate the walls.
You continue walking on the path where cows graze and soon reach a Kneipp basin where you can cool down. Slightly below the Kneipp basin is the mountain hut, known for its cream puffs in many variations. After a short break, you continue along the path to Grainau.
You can either walk back the same way or take the bus. You can easily shorten or extend the route at any time.
