The Leonhardstein , sometimes also called Leonhardistein, is a rather low mountain at 1449 m , but because of its striking shape, it is a striking mountain in the Tegernsee mountains near Kreuth . His view includes all the surrounding mountains from the Hirschberg over Roßstein and Buchstein , Plankenstein and Risserkogel as well as the Wallberg and other mountains in the background.
The most famous ascent begins at the Kreuth church and leads over the Duslau-Alm to the saddle between Leonhardstein and Hirschberg and from there to the summit. For the ascent in summer 1:45 hours and for the descent 1:30 hours are estimated, whereby surefootedness and a head for heights are required on the summit . For the last half an hour, the path to the summit leads through a steep rocky gully that can be tricky when wet, snowy and icy. Nevertheless, the Leonhardstein is sometimes also climbed in winter. Due to the rocky subsoil, snowshoes are more of a hindrance. Grödeln are recommended when there is ice. An alternative access to the saddle and summit begins at the Schwarzentenn-Alm.
