- 4.8 (255)·Hard·7.4 miThis fairly challenging route starts at the parking lot in Reichenbach and leads along partly steep trails through the Allgäu Alps up to the Rubihorn, which rises to nearly 2,000 meters. As is always the case with hikes in alpine terrain, sturdy shoes and sure-footedness are essential here, especially near the summit. The ridge trail is secured with steel cables at several particularly challenging sections. With picturesque panoramic views, nature trails through secluded woodlands,...
- 4.6 (121)·Moderate·2.6 mi·Est. 1.5–2 hrPopular loop trail in Oberallgaeu, Bavaria. This route expands the popular hiking trail through the Breitachklamm near Oberstorf into a beautiful loop. The Breitachklamm is one of the deepest gorges in the Bavarian Alps and one of the deepest rocky gorges in Central Europe. Alpine conditions prevail in the gorge - sturdy shoes are a must and short-term closures due to dangerous weather conditions are possible. The way back is relaxed and full of beautiful views of the surrounding mountain...
- 4.7 (115)·Hard·10.9 miThis wonderful mountain hike begins south of Oberstdorf at the Nebelhornbahn parking lot (which charges a fee) and leads through the Allgäu High Alps Nature Reserve up to the Rubihorn. At the foot of this mountain lies the Unterer Gaisalpsee, which is just as breathtaking as the panoramic view from the Rubihorn. A truly dreamlike hike through a secluded high valley! There are places to stop for refreshments, and the route is accessible by bus and train (access to the starting point from the...

- 4.6 (56)·Moderate·6.1 mi·Est. 3–3.5 hrPopular loop in Allgäu, Bavaria. This varied hike starts and ends at Oberstdorf train station (accessible by bus and train). The route is relatively easy due to its minor differences in altitude. Still, there is never a dull moment on this tour through quiet forests, idyllic meadows, past photogenic rivers and lakes. Those interested in winter sports can look forward to an attraction worth seeing: the 235 m high Heini-Klopfer ski jumping hill - the jump is not only the largest in Germany...
- 4.6 (61)·Hard·7.2 miChallenging hike from the Oytal to the Nebelhorn near Oberstdorf, Bavaria. Experienced hikers will get their money's worth on this tour. The Panoramaweg, which initially climbs steadily, leads from the Oytal up to the so-called Oytal Gleitweg. Here the path becomes very steep very quickly. The path often stops and is partially secured with steel cables. Via the Seealpsee it goes directly to the Edmund-Probst-Haus (and thus to the mountain station of the Nebelhornbahn). Now the steep ascent...
- 4.3 (60)·Hard·7.9 mi·Est. 6–6.5 hrPopular climb to the Kemptner Hütte from Oberstdorf, Bavaria. The Kemptner Hütte in Oberstdorf is the hub in the Allgäu Alps and the starting point for two of the most popular crossings of the Alps: the classic E5 from Oberstdorf via Bozen to Verona and its extremely attractive variant to Meran. For many hikers, this route is the start of a longer journey. The ascent through the wildly beautiful Trettach Valley shows right from the start how beautiful such a hike can be. Along babbling...
- 4.5 (30)·Moderate·3.6 mi·Est. 2.5–3 hrA short, steep hike from the summit of the Nebelhorn down to the Schneealpe cable car station. First it goes over narrow paths, which then quickly widen to wide gravel paths. Past the ski cannons and snowmaking systems, following the path, the surface now changes to coarse tar. Significantly flatter, the path follows in the direction of the valley and the Schneealpe cable car station.
