On the western foothills of the Karwendel, high above the Olympiaregion Seefeld, a rewarding iron path was built directly to the summit of the Seefelder Spitze. Quick to reach - from the terminus of the funicular railway - the steel cable runs along longer vertical passages in the area of the western ridge up to the 2221 metre high summit cross.
