I went mountain climbing today in the Bavarian Alps, together with my friend Alex.The mountain we selected is the Kofel at the well-known town of Oberammergau. It is 1342 meters high (4403 feet) and it took us 1.5 hours to climb from the base (840 m) to the peak.
We had beautiful weather, sunny and 8 degrees Celsius. The weather is unusually good for end of November in Germany. As you can see, there is no snow, only a tiny little bit on the peak. Most of the walk is through forest. Only the last 100 m of it is real climbing where you need your hands.
And here we are on the top! From there we had a wonderful view of the surrounding peaks, the Ammergau (the Ammer valley) with Oberammergau and Unterammergau and Ettal.If anyone wants to do the same tour, here is a good description (in German) that guided us.
