The Rossloch is the highest part of the Hinterautal in the Karwendel , which forms the end of the valley as the Almkessel. The Rossloch stretches from the Kastenalm ( 1220  m above sea level ) from west to east to the cauldron-like Hinteres Boden at an altitude of about 1300 m . Due to the mountain range with the Sunntigerspitze , the Rosslochkamm , which closes the Rossloch to the south, running at around 2000 m altitude , the Rossloch is in the shade for most of the winter and therefore forms a cold pole in the Karwendel.

Coming from the rear soil, the water flowing off initially runs above ground, but soon seeps into the bed load . Ultimately, it unites with the Lafatscher Bach and forms part of the Isar .

bases

The serviced Kastenalm is located at the western end of the Rossloch, but offers no overnight accommodation. The Halleranger Alm and the Hallerangerhaus offer overnight accommodation .

Possible tours

The Rossloch is an extension of the classic mountain bike tour from Scharnitz through the Hinterautal to the Kastenalm.

The Rossloch is also the starting point for numerous mountain tours in the Karwendel, e.g. B. Laliderer Spitze , Dreizinkenspitze , Grubenkarspitze or Bockkarspitze ( 2589  m above sea level ), especially for destinations that can only be reached from the southern side as a mountain tour due to the northern falls of the Hinterautal-Vomper chain , the largest and longest mountain range in the Karwendel are. The shortest walk to Scharnitz, however, is around three hours, which is why mountaineers mostly use a mountain bike for the route through the Hinterautal valley.
