kampenwand, 1669 m, BY

germany => bavaria => chiemgau => aschau => hohenaschau => KAMPENWAND (1669m)🌋

who wants to learn one of these bavarian rhymes ('schüttelreim')? 😁
„I gangat gern auf d’Kampenwand, wann i mit meiner Wamp’n kannt’.“
ich würd gern auf die kampenwand, wenn ich nur mit meiner wampn kannt.
translation to plain german by wikipedia: „Ich ginge gerne auf die Kampenwand, wenn ich mit meinem dicken Bauch es könnte.“ 😉🏔️🍻🍀

what a wonderful day in the beautiful bavarian alps! we have decided to show our guest from poland the nearby hills and this time we thought abt the chiemgau region southeast of munich. well, we enjoyed the historic cable car kampenwandbahn from 1957 which brought us from the valley in hohenaschau to the higher regions (626m - 1467m). we than walked around a little bit. first there was some rain in the morning, but later so much sun that all 3 of us got sunburn 🌞

after the hiking we've enjoyed the schloss hohenaschau castle and the nearby lake simssee 🐋
the kampenwand massif as seen from the cottage steinling alm
the summit cross is at the east mountain face, 1664m
