The Hohe Ifen is a prominent mountain in the Allgäu Alps and offers some of the most impressive panoramic views in the region. Here are some interesting and worth knowing facts:
Unique rocky outcrop: The Hohe Ifen is characterized by its plateau-like shape, which towers over the Kleinwalsertal like a giant rocky outcrop. This shape is particularly distinctive and offers spectacular views.
Götteracker Plateau: To the north of the Hohe Ifen lies the Gottesacker Plateau, a kilometer-wide karst area. This landscape is unique and offers an impressive backdrop for hikes.
Panoramic view: From the summit of the Hohe Ifen at 2229 meters, you have a fantastic view of the Allgäu Alps, the Grosser Widderstein, the Gottesacker Plateau and parts of the Swiss Alps. On clear days, you can even see Lake Constance and the Säntis in Switzerland.
Hike: The hike to the Hohe Ifen is moderately difficult and leads through varied terrain, including pastures, scree fields and steep rock faces. The trail is well marked and offers numerous photo opportunities.
Rope-secured passages: Some sections of the climb are rope-secured, which offers additional safety, especially in steep and exposed areas.
The Hohe Ifen is not only a popular destination for hikers and mountaineers, but also a place that impresses with its unique landscape and breathtaking views.
