Summits and Tours
The mountain Rabenkopf has a remunerative and easy to
hike summit. From there you can savour a very nice view. From the
valleys you can climb to the summit from all directions. We begin
our tour from the hut Tutzinger Hütte. Thereto we hike on the
way 455 upwards in western direction. Having hiked about half an
hour we do not climb to the Benediktenwand summit but follow the
way 451 in western direction to the Glaswandscharte (or also
direction Herzogstand). Then we pass the relatively low Glaswand on
its southern side and eventually reach the saddle where the way 454
comes up from the village Pessenbach. Now we have the choice
between an easy and a more pretentious route to the summit.
On equal level as the saddle we hike in south-western direction
around the south ridge to the Staffelalm and further over alp
meadows on an easy path to the top. With good fettle we have
reached the top after 2 1/2 up to 3 hours. Or:
More pretentious and therefore only suited to full exercised hikers
we continue on a path in the same direction we have come, pass a
small hidden cottage of the mountain rescue team and climb steep up
first in the wood on the east ridge to the pre-top. Over it we
reach within a few minutes the summit.
In case there is some snow depending upon the season, the last
section of the path to the pre-top may be nasty and dangerous. So
decide between the routes depending upon your capabilities and the
weather.
