Krepelschrofen

Krepelschrofen, Mountain summit in Wallgau, Bavaria, Germany.

Krepelschrofen is a mountain summit in the Wallgau area that reaches about 1160 meters elevation. From the peak, hikers enjoy expansive views toward the Karwendel and Wetterstein ranges as well as the upper Isar Valley.

Wallgau's ski club was founded in December 1950, and construction of its own ski jump began half a year later. The Krepelschroffenschanze opened on 23 December 1951, with a K-point of 44 metres, about 200 metres west of the Walchenseestraße/Risser Straße junction above today's covered Obernach canal. The judges' tower was demolished in summer 1975; the smaller youth jump stayed in use until the early 1990s.

The trail begins at the village center in Wallgau, where traditional Upper Bavarian farmhouses display intricate Lüftl frescoes on their facades. These painted decorations reflect the artistic heritage and craft traditions of the local community.

Access to the starting point is reached by train to Kochel followed by a bus ride to Wallgau town. Hikers should wear sturdy footwear and bring appropriate gear depending on the season and weather conditions.

The larch-wood shelter on the grassy summit was built in 2018, largely with donated money, replacing a refuge destroyed by a forest fire two years earlier. It is not a serviced hut: there is no food or drink, only protection and seating.
