    The Ochsenälpleskopf is a rather quiet destination in the Ammerwald. After a somewhat steeper forest ascent (high snow cover recommended), a pretty northeast-facing summit slope follows.

    Roadbook

    Behind the Ammerwald Hotel, follow the Schützensteig north-westward into the valley. Before a bridge, turn left and climb steeper through the forest onto the eastern ridge of the Ochsenälpleskopf. On the ridge, the ascent is initially gentler uphill, then steeper again, and in many switchbacks over the last 150 meters to the highest point.

    Your descent goes northeast and includes a short uphill section to the eastern ridge. Then down through a forest clearing towards the starting point. 

    Tip: If you have time, also visit Ettal Abbey with its impressive basilica.
