    The trail runs about 30 meters north (in the forest), slightly below, past the summit! We almost ran by, so: the summit cross does not overlook. It would be a pity :-)

      As of 04/2020: The summit cross has broken into several parts after the storm Sabine. Waiting for a new cross soon :)

        The Himmelseck is a 1,487-meter-high subsidiary peak of the Eckhaldekopf in the Allgäu Alps in Oberstaufen, Upper Allgäu.
        "You will find traces of your God in every corner of nature, but if you want to see God even greater, then stand at his cross."
