At 1,834 meters, the Hochgrat is the highest mountain in the western Allgäu and a promising excursion destination for all requirements and a wide variety of sports. The Hochgrat is located in the middle of the Nagelfluhkette Nature Park, which lies across the border between Germany (Allgäu) and Austria (Vorarlberg). The aim of the nature park is to preserve the unique natural and cultural landscape and to promote sustainable tourism. In order to be able to enjoy the wonderful view over the main Alpine ridge, which stretches from Lake Constance to the Oberstdorf and Kleinwalsertal mountains and all the way to the Zugspitze, the Hochgratbahn takes nature enthusiasts close to the summit every day. The mountain station is at an altitude of 1,708 meters - so one ascent takes you about 900 meters up to the sky in winter and summer. The ascent alone, with a journey time of around 15 minutes, and the fascinating view make the ride on the cable car a special experience.
