Wegbeschreibung
From the car park at the Kesselbergsattel at 860 m, we first follow the signposted forest path to the Herzogstand through the forest in a south-westerly direction until we reach a wide ski slope. We follow this uphill in an alternating gradient. Even if the forest road turns away from the piste, it is better to stay on it. After a short stretch downhill, the slope becomes much steeper and turns to the left. Almost level, we then reach the wide mountain basin of the Schlehdorfer Alm. Behind the information board "Skibergsteigen umweltfreundlich" ("Environmentally friendly ski mountaineering") of the German Alpine Association, we turn left to climb more steeply uphill on the slope to the left of the T-bar lift on the Fahrenberg. We cross this and, after crossing a last ski slope, arrive at the Herzogstandhaus (1575 m). From here, a traverse leads westwards to the slope of the summit, which is covered in mountain pines. It is requested to follow the serpentine course of the summer trail to the summit in order to spare the vegetation when the snow cover is low.
At the summit there is a wooden pavilion where we can take a sheltered rest at the summit and enjoy the view.
The descent is along the ascent route back to the starting point.
