Roßkopf (Bavaria)

The Roßkopf is a 1,580-metre-high (5,180 ft) peak in the Mangfall Mountains in Upper Bavaria.

Due to its proximity to Munich, its relatively low height, easy ascents and picturesque location with views of the Spitzingsee and Tegernsee lakes, the Roßkopf is one of the most popular local mountains for Munich families.

[citation needed] Roßkopf is also a destination for ski mountaineering and powder skiers.

A new chair lift links the Roßkopf to the Spitzing ski resort.
