The discovery in the Karwendel. Solid climb. Doable for the practised climbfinder. More than sturdy for the Sunday climber. There is little traffic as cars's have to pay a toll up to the summit. But the road is narrow and that doesn't stop motorists from sometimes driving pathetically. But generally the traffic is safe. At two km before the summit, you have a 200 gravel that interrupts the good asphalt, for some other reason. But you can cross this perfectly well by racebike. The park... read more

The discovery in the Karwendel. Solid climb. Doable for the practised climbfinder. More than sturdy for the Sunday climber. There is little traffic as cars's have to pay a toll up to the summit. But the road is narrow and that doesn't stop motorists from sometimes driving pathetically. But generally the traffic is safe.
At two km before the summit, you have a 200 gravel that interrupts the good asphalt, for some other reason. But you can cross this perfectly well by racebike. The parking at the summit is also gravel. Otherwise, the beautiful views have already been described.

De ontdekking in de Karwendel. Stevige klim. Goed te doen voor de geoefende climbfinder. Meer dan stevig voor de zondags-klimmer. Er is weinig verkeer, want auto's moeten tol betalen tot de top. Maar de weg is smal en dat weerhoudt automobilisten er niet van om soms patserig te rijden. Maar doorgaans is het verkeer veilig.
Op twee km voor de top heb je een 200 gravel dat het goede asfalt onderbreekt, om één af andere reden. Maar je kan hier perfect met de racebike over. Ook de parking op de top is gravel. Voor de rest zijn de mooie vergezichten al beschreven.

Very nice: quiet, shady in the lower part, fantastic views at the top. Very beautiful route. Quite steep.

Sehr schön: ruhig, im unteren Teil schattig, oben dann traumhafte Aussicht. Sehr schöne Strecke. Recht steil.

Frequently Asked Questions

Hinterhorn Alm is a challenging ascent. For this type of climbing, we recommend mountain gearing, specifically a compact system. This means a small front chainring of 34 teeth, combined with a rear cassette where, depending on your level, strength, and experience, you choose a sprocket with 30, 32, or even 34 teeth. Remember that a smooth cadence is always more efficient!
