    Safety information

    z. B. Zwischen Lissabon und Porto ist die Infrastruktur noch nicht so gut ausgebaut. Die Etappen von einer Unterkunft zur nächsten können dementsprechend lang und abenteuerlich sein.

    Tips and suggestions

    e.g. B. In southern Portugal it can get very hot in summer. The ideal hiking time is therefore spring or autumn.

    Roadbook

    Begin at the bottom of the Alpsitzbahn and make your way on foot to the summit of the Alpsitze. From there take the via ferrata that leads down to the Hollentalangerhutte. After reaching the hut continue along the normal route to the Zugspitze summit cross. Congratulations, you've made it past most of the uphill, but you still have a long way to go.

    Make your way down the Reintal, through Partenkirchen, and all the way up Wank. Now all you have is one more mountain to conquer! Head down the Wank and up to the Konigstand. Just follow the ridge from and you will be at the Kramerspitz in no time.

    You are so close! Once you make your way down, shortcutting the Stepbergalm, and back to your car in the Alpspitzbahn parking lot, you will have completed the Four Summit Sufferthon!
