Winter hike with snowshoes: A magical experience in the Bavarian Prealps
The cold season has its own charms, especially when you have the opportunity to explore the snowy mountains. Such an experience can become an unforgettable adventure, especially if you go on snowshoes.
Starting point: Fleck near Lenggries
The journey begins in the picturesque town of Fleck near Lenggries. The path is well signposted here. As soon as you start the hike you are greeted by a breathtaking winter landscape. The first steps lead through a landscape that is not yet covered in enough snow to require snowshoes. Therefore, they are first attached to the backpack.
The path through the enchanted forest
The sun peeking through the trees creates an almost magical atmosphere. The path leads along the Alpbach, past deeply cut areas and an impressive, 380-year-old fir tree, which is considered a natural monument. The so-called “winter path” continues and soon it will be time to put on your snowshoes. With them you no longer sink in the snow up to your knees, which makes progress much easier.
The forest through which the path leads is reminiscent of an enchanted forest. The trees are thickly covered with snow, the sun shines in and makes the snow glitter in combination with the sun's rays and ice crystals. It's like walking through another world.
The climb to the summit
The path continues uphill. Here you can meet ski tourers skiing down the wide area. But the real highlight of the hike is still to come. After a strenuous climb you will be rewarded with a breathtaking view of the surrounding mountains. The effort of the climb is more than made up for by this view.
Conclusion
The Bavarian Prealps offer a unique experience for everyone who loves nature and is looking for adventure. A winter hike with snowshoes allows you to experience the beauty of the snow-covered landscape from a completely new perspective. It's an adventure you won't soon forget.
