Panorama from Roßstein (1,697m)

The summit of Roßstein (1,697 m) in the Isarwinkel is a powerful place with a 360-degree panorama and the option of magnificent sunrises and sunsets. Roßstein and the slightly higher Buchstein (1,702 m) form a twin peak, between which the Tegernseer Hütte has found a scenic and sheltered spot in the saddle, often compared to an eagle’s nest.

These views and the hospitality of the host make the Tegernseer Hütte one of the most prime spots in the Bavarian Alps for me. Right next to the hut, the rock face drops vertically for a hundred metres; climbers will find ample route options on the rocks around the hut and an exit directly onto the viewing terrace. Due to the relatively long season from May to November, compared to high-alpine huts, a visit is particularly recommended in spring or autumn.
