Allgäu Alps hiking

Bavaria, GermanyHiking Verified details

Alpine meadows, huts and lakes above Oberstdorf.

The friendliest introduction to alpine walking in Germany: waymarked paths of every grade radiate from Oberstdorf, cable cars remove the worst of the climbing, and mountain huts serve Kaiserschmarrn at 1,800 m. The Nebelhorn ridge walk and the Breitachklamm gorge suit mixed groups; the Heilbronner Weg is for experienced walkers only. Snow clears from the high routes by late June.
