View of the Allgäu Mountains

Highlight • Viewpoint

Beautiful view, and if there's not much snow, it's also great for hiking. 😊

Highlight • Natural Monument

In 1964, this was the scene of a landslide: the entire ridge east of the Breitenberg fell into the valley and buried forests and meadows under its rocks.

Heubatspitze summit

Highlight • Summit

The summit itself is rather unspectacular, more interesting is the northern path to the summit, the so-called "Hohen Gänge", a rope-insured path in the T4 difficulty range.

June 19, 2025,Rundtour von Hinterstein Breitenberg 🏔️ - Heubatspitze 🏔️ - Höhe Gänge 🪜- Rotspitze 🏔️

Today, June 19, 2025, a fantastic, albeit very challenging circular tour started from Hinterstein. It begins with a very steep climb to the summit of the Breitenberg at 1893 m, which continues even steeper to the second summit, the Heubatspitze at 2008 m. Along the ridge, with a natural, mega, fantastic 360°C view 👌🏻, it continues to the adrenaline-pumping climb …

Very beautiful and demanding mountain tour! High passages are difficult to walk due to a ladder and several rope points. You should have via ferrata equipment with you and be free from giddiness.

From the Bad Hindelang bus station (free parking) you can take the bus for €2.80 (2 honeycombs) to the Saw car park. From there we first went along the Ostrach in the direction of the carriage museum. Later then up to Breitenberg. The ascent is steep, but rewards later with great views! Despite the clouds and the cool temperature. An …

December 3, 2022,Hinterstein über Breitenberg und hohe Gänge zur Rotspitze, gefährliche Winterwanderung

For all those who want to do this tour in winter...in summer or without snow it's a relatively simple story. But with snow, it was an average of 40-50cm from 1500m, this tour becomes a strenuous, dangerous tour that requires the highest level of concentration. There are no problems up to the Breitenberg, but the snow makes the last few …

Now it worked. Completed the High Gears tour. Great view from up there. The tour is designated as difficult. Only the via ferrata is difficult. No problem for the experienced. Good shoes are required, as well as sure-footedness and a head for heights. Not suitable for "Sunday runners". Start early to get a cheap parking space (private parking spaces from …

Great tour with via ferrata and metal ladder between the Heubatspitze and the Südspitze Breitenberg. (high gears)
I walked the via ferrata without a “harness”. You should have sure-footedness, strength, fitness and courage, in my opinion.
The weather was incredibly sunny. Absolutely stay away from it when it's wet - in my opinion... 😀
