Just right for a long day doing a classic Munro round with some grade 1 scrambling. Lazed around on the Ben’s summit for about 45min in warm sunshine plus took a dip in the Allt a’ Mhuilinn! Above the cloud for a bit while the overnight fog burnt off. " — davidb • Sep 17, 2020

"So... originating from a conversation on twitter, I ended up ascending the Zugspitze a second time, three days after my first summit. This time I took the cable car down, however. Enough is enough :)" — TheTMan • Jul 23, 2020

"Combining arguably the two most scenic routes to the Zugspitze to one gigantic day trip has been a longstanding dream of mine. With perfect weather conditions, and on a weekday (highly recommended) a friend and I finally made it happen. Started at around 5:45am in Hammersbach, went through the Höllentalklamm gorge, two ferratas, and across the Höllentalferner glacier to the summit, where we arrived at around 1pm. Went back to Garmisch through the Reintal valley, which is both beautiful and near-endless. Total trip took around 16h and was about 41km and 3000m elev. gain." — TheTMan • Jul 20, 2020

"Blizzard conditions on the summit meant approx 1m visibility and severe winds. We got as close to the summit as possible in very poor conditions and I came away with mild frostbite in my fingers. Ran back to the bus in fading light and just made it...An amazing adventure that I would readily do again!" — WanderlustingRunner • Dec 14, 2019

"Took the North Face to Carn Mor Dearg Arete traverse, and followed the tourist path down (which cut into bog land, with no trail...if you take this route, be sure to have GPS). It was the day before a storm came in, dry, chilly and cloudy. While had a lot of fun across the ridge traverse, would not want to be on it during a rain storm. It's quite boggie at the base, going up and coming down. Definitely need water proof boots and gear. There are areas of scree fields, but the trail was pretty solid through these. While hiking up to both the Carn Mor Dearg peaks, the rocks are larger, but there are some loose ones (poles come in handy). Again, GPS is highly recommended, as the trail is scant in various places. Would recommend poles and ability to scramble, if you're taking this route. Also, if you bring rubbish up...take it back down. It was a bit disappointing to see the amount of garbage left at the top of this peak. Please pick up after yourself (carry in/carry out)." — colleenmarie512 • Sep 11, 2019
