Today, I‘m in the midst of Wetterstein mountains in the Northern Limestone Alps to gain new and different perspectives on the tall limestone massif that is the highest mountain in Germany. Here at the border region, it’s easy to get around by train between Germany’s Garmisch-Partenkirchen and Austria’s Lermoos.
Eibsee cable car to Zugspitze: 1st ascent of the day, only for aerialway- & summit-employees.
730am, quiet and chill on the lake; Zugspitze at centre-right.
Grubighütte
Ascent on the Grubig II.
View of Zugspitze massif from the Grubig II mountain station, next to the Grubig lodge.
Thunderhead forming over Zugspitze; next set of photos below are from the area of light green in the valley floor below (between Lermoos and Ehrwald).
Loisachweg
The view from Lermoos: Alps formed by the northerly drift by continental Africa into continental Europe.
Lermooser Moos (Lermoos Marsh): river marsh plains here and graded gravel roads are ideal for hiking and biking.
The grey-white chalky rock that is limestone means that the rock seen elevated today was once sitting at the bottom of an ancient ocean.
I surpassed 700 km of total walking distance on travel day 72. I made all photos above with an iPhone15 on 18 Jul 2024. This post composed with Jetpack for iOS appears on Fotoeins Fotografie at fotoeins DOT com.
