Route Description The northeast face of the Bodenschneid from the Brecherspitze. © Markus StadlerPhoto: Markus Stadler, Rother Bergverlag
The Bodenschneid between Spitzingsee and Tegernsee visually fits well among the surrounding forest and meadow mountains. On the north and west sides, the Bodenschneidhaus and the two Firstalmen serve as bases for a hearty stopover, and there are numerous ascent options for almost every snow condition and taste. Nevertheless, the Bodenschneid is less frequented than many other ski mountains around Spitzingsee. This applies at least to the ascent and descent routes, as ski tourers spread out well here – on the spacious summit you will rarely be alone in good weather. But there is a reason for this. Besides the deep view of Spitzing-, Tegern-, and Schliersee as well as the Bavarian foothills, there is an unobstructed view of the main Alpine ridge.
Three different ascent routes lead to this summit, each offering various variations. Each of these ascents has its own character, and the expert will choose the route that fits the respective snow conditions. The most direct route leads from the toll road above Enterrottach from the west over a steep forest path and the beautiful southeast slope of the Bodenalm to the summit. For the descent, you can then traverse south into the ski area. The most snow-safe ascent starts at Spitzingsee – via the Firstalm you ascend along the rock wall of the Krettenburg to the northeast slope and through a steep hollow to the summit ridge. The path described below from Neuhaus is the longest, but also the most varied ascent and offers a nice circular tour. If you add the summit slope to the Bodenalm, you can discover the most rewarding slopes of the Bodenschneid in one tour. Additionally, this minimizes contact with the Spitzingsee ski area and the often numerous sledders on the natural toboggan run. Furthermore, there are two opportunities for refreshments along the way – the Upper Firstalm with a wonderful sun terrace before the ascent to the summit and the cozy Bodenschneidhaus before the valley descent along the toboggan run.
Ascent A forest path leads to the right of the stream through the initially narrow valley upwards. Although this path is used as a toboggan run, it can sometimes be thoroughly cleared down to the gravel. After about half an hour, we cross a forest road. This now leads left into a shallow basin with sparse forest. At a left turn, we leave the road straight ahead, walk flat into the valley floor, and finally ascend left to the Lower Freudenreich Alm. South of the Alm, a somewhat steeper clearing leads diagonally left through the forest up to another hollow with an alpine hut. Here one could take the beautiful west slope of the Brecherspitze on skis to the left. We, however, continue right past the building south to the Upper Firstalm. If we pass up the tempting sun terrace, we leave the inn on the left and traverse without gaining altitude under the rock wall of the Krettenburg to the west until we can comfortably ascend through sparse forest to the saddle between Krettenburg and
