Overview
The ascent from Spitzingsattel and Obere Firstalm is one of the ski-ascents to Brecherspitz.
Brecherspitz seen from Spitzingsee.Route Description
At Spitzingsattel (1127m) are parking with costs.You cross the street and follow the sign to OBERE FIRSTALM. You are now on the W21 "Trautweinweg". Be careful, the snowy track is also used by tobogganist! The W21 runs along the whole south-side of Brecherspitz. The way up to OBERE FIRSTALM on this snowy road is a little bit uninteresting.
W21 - TrautweinwegAt Obere Firstalm you turn to northwest and ascend on a field alongside an old Ski-lift to the fore-summit of Brecherspitz. This part is very nice, because it is feasible to do your own switchbacks while ascending or descending by ski on untouched snow.

Obere Firstalm and ski-region Spitzingsee seen from pre-summit of Brecherspitz.After reaching the mountain-station of the forsaken ski-lift you arrive the fore-summit. This point marks the end of the ascent for many mountaineers, because the west-ridge is very difficult in winter. If there are tracks on the ridge it will be easier to cross to the main-summit. But if the ridge is untouched you have to pay attention while descent the first part and ascent out of the ridge-notch to the main-summit. In Spring be careful of snow-shelfs. Leave your ski at the pre-summit.
