Day 6 ... driving from Kiesheim am Ries to Saulgrub... and one SOTA summit.
APRS track:
DL/AM-001, Peissenberg - 988m, 1 point
This is a drive up summit, the large parking is at pos 47.801233, 11.013914
Parking is not free, it was 2€ for 3 hours, so plenty of time to do my activation.
At the western end of the church, I found a nice bench in the shade, and with a nice view over the valley. Ideal to set up my outdoor shack !
I had 17 QSO's in the log, including 3 S2S, no DX. Here the QSO map.
On the summit is also the Hohenpeißenberg Meteorological Observatory. It is in use since 1781, and is considered the oldest mountain weather station in the world.
And of course, like on many summits, there is an impressive transmitting tower ... must have picture !
With that, we were at the end of the Romantic Road.
There was no SOTA on day 7, we spent a quiet day in Saulgrub, which is in the Ammergauer Alps.
