Hochkoenig is a great mountain and I am glad that finally it has its own page on SummitPost.

I have been waiting for years to go there on a ski tour. Hope that this winter will offer good conditions - still passable road to Arthur haus and enough snow to the summit.

	Hasn't voted	Hi desainme, thank you for voting. I do not understand - what is the connection between "King of diamond peak" and Hochkönig? Concerning Watzmann: Watzmann is the second highest mountain-range in Germany. Indeed its the highest mountain, whose summits, slopes and ridges belong completely to Germany (Wetterstein with Zugspitze is shared with Austria). Watzmann in my opinion is one of the most beautiful mountains in the whole alps. East face above Königsee (Kings lake - has nothing to do with Hochkönig) is one of the highest walls of the whole alps. "Watzmann" has no special meaning. But legends say that he was a cruel king (!) who was turned into stone for his monstrous crimes. Greetings from old Europe to the new world.
