Location and climbing possibilities
The summit is on the border between the municipalities of Gaißach and Bad Wiessee and can be reached on an easy mountain hike from the valley town of Bad Wiessee via the Aueralm, which is cultivated all year round at an altitude of 1,270 meters, or through the Söllbachtal and the Stinkergraben to the Hirschtalsattel, from Lenggries via the Geierstein or Can also be reached via the Hirschbachtal to the Hirschtalsattel. The Fockenstein is also often climbed in winter, especially as part of a rather simple ski tour. While the way to the Aueralm can usually be mastered without any problems, the steep summit slopes must be carefully assessed with regard to their avalanche danger . The Maximiliansweg from Füssen to Königssee also leads over the Fockenstein. In summer, the ascent from Bad Wiessee takes two hours and the descent 1.5 hours. From Lenggries (from Hohenburg Castle ) over the Hirschtalsattel you have to allow 2.5 hours for the ascent and 2 hours for the descent.
