You have seen 2 previous posts from the German Alps with a lot of photos but these photos are all captured between the mountains. This time I'm going up the Wallberg mountain in southern Germany. Of course, this was also my plan, others had never come up with this idea. When we were there the day before, I thought that I really want to get up the mountain there because there is a cable car that takes us almost to the top. Sadly, this closes at 5 pm and there was no time for us to go anymore that evening.
The next, 2 of us drove back to the Tegernsee town from the Munich to get up this mountain now. Cable car costs 20 EUR to get up and back down. Drive up took around 10 minutes, pretty fast actually I could say when considered that the mountain is 1700 meters high. Already during the drive up, some amazing views appeared.
Cable car pretty much takes you straight to the restaurant on the mountain. There is also a small church there. For some reason, I don't have a photo of this church. I know I post processed one but I can't find it now.
Since this wasn't the highest point of the mountain we had to start hiking towards there. It wasn't far but the terrain up there was a little rough at times, I think it took us another 30 minutes to reach the top of the mountain. To be more exact, the highest point of the mountain was 1722 meters high.
I really like the photo below. This shows you many different layers of mountains in terms of distance.

Next two photos show you the rough terrain we had to hike up to. It wasn't that hard but I certainly don't recommend to take this hike if you are not up to this.
View down to the lake and the towns was really special. This lake was huge when sailing on it but it looks much smaller when seen from this high. The weather up there was clear and beautiful so no low clouds were interfering with our view. It was a little bit chillier there than at the ground level but we are talking about maybe only a couple of degrees difference.
I have never been to the Alps before and I certainly want to go to the Austrian mountains sometime in the future.
