We'll meet at 08:45 at Munich Hauptbahnhof and take the RB57 to Gmund at 09:02. From Gmund Bahnhof we take bus 359 at 10:04 to Bad Wiessee Söllbach (arrives 10:23). From there we hike up to Aueralm for lunch, then continue up to the Fockenstein summit (1,564m) with panoramic views over the Tegernsee and beyond. After the summit we descend to Lenggries and take the train back to Munich. Please bring cash for lunch.
Note: Chicken Line = skip the Fockenstein summit loop and take the straight path. There's a closed hut along the way where you can wait for the brave ones. Bring warm clothes, you'll be protected from the wind but not the cold!
