Bschießer 2000 m | Allgäu, Tannheimertal

by Olav Schmid 01/02/2009
If you only have a few hours to spare, are rather lazy on the ascent and still want to descend steeply, then this is the right place for you! The Bscheißer impresses with its crisp descents via the north-northeast flank and an easy ascent with lift assistance.

From Schattwald in the Tannheimer Valley

From Schattwald, the Wannenjochbahn cable car takes you to the top at a leisurely pace. If you skip the subsequent "dance the warm-up", you should be standing on the summit a good hour later.

In general, the march towards the sun is rather leisurely here, although the ascent to the summit does bring a bead or two of sweat to the forehead.

Only then does the view of the north and east flanks of the "Bescheißer" open up. Up to 50-degree steep gullies, which run flat into a basin at the bottom, make you think of sequences from the last freeride film...

But be careful - it's not going to be shitty! Everyone who undertakes this tour should be absolutely sure of their ability, the snow conditions and the avalanche situation!


If you still haven't had enough, take a look to the east after this hearty descent and examine the north-west face of the Ponten (2045 m)... That would be another hour's ascent. Or you can glide comfortably downhill towards Schattwald, where a freshly tapped wheat beer is already waiting.
