This is a compound tour. Time includes everything, walk times, breaks, foddos! my moaning, the search for the oxygen tent... everything. A walking time of 3:45 hours is realistic.

Also watch out: inquire beforehand about the opening times of the Saloberalp. In the summer of 2022 it will be closed on Mondays and Tuesdays.

We went back over the Zirmgrat. From the afternoon you could clearly see the Pentecost holidays have arrived in the Allgäu.
