Transcription
Name
When looking at the mountain from Immenstadt, the sun at noon is right on top of the peak, giving it its name "Mittag" based on the German word for noon (mid day).
Routes
There are multiple hiking trails that lead up to the top of the mountain.
Alternative routes
There is a ski lift that goes from Immenstadt to the top, with one interruption approximately in the middle of the mountain. During the winter, more ski lifts open for skiing. A 5.1-kilometre-long (3.2 mi) toboggan run leads from the summit of the mountain to Immenstadt.
