Geiselstein

The Geiselstein rises to an elevation of 1,884 meters above sea level, forming a prominent peak within the Bavarian Ammergau Alps mountain range.

The geological formation of Geiselstein occurred during the Alpine orogeny period, when tectonic forces shaped the current mountainous landscape of southern Germany.

Local mountaineering clubs regularly organize guided tours to Geiselstein's summit, maintaining the German tradition of alpine hiking and nature appreciation.

Multiple marked trails lead to the summit from different starting points, with the most accessible route beginning at the designated parking area near Halblech.

The mountain's distinctive limestone cliffs create natural climbing routes that attract technical climbers throughout the warmer months of the year.
