A first orientation
The mountains of the Tyrolean Zugspitz Arena
Before packing the backpack and putting on the hiking boots, a few words about orientation in the extensive hiking area: to the south lie the Lechtal Alps, to the east extends the Mieminger mountain range. Both are impressive two thousand meter high massifs separated only by the Fern Pass. The northeastern border is marked by the Zugspitze – Germany’s highest mountain at 2,962 metres, and the Wetterstein Mountains border directly on it. The Ammergau Alps stretch from Bavaria to Tyrol, where the Zugspitz Arena becomes slightly “flatter” in the northwest.
In brief:
South: Lechtal Alps
East: Mieminger chain
Northeast: Zugspitze
Northwest: Ammergau Alps
