View a beautiful tour. I still found it exhausting and would rate it as difficult. Between the west and east peaks there were young cattle that were very curious and blocked the passage. Always wonderful views!

On the way to Oberstdorf, we stopped in Hittisau and undertook this tour ...

First Rappenfluh with its rocks and passages and the steep ascent and descent to the Hittisberg peaks 1328m, provided strenuous exercise 🥵, but we were rewarded with great views of the mountains.

The Hittisberg has an …

Panoramic hike to the Hittisberg (1328 m) starts at the village square, from Hittisau and runs over the parcels Heideggen, Dorf and Bütscheln to the Hittisberg Alps. This is where the sometimes steep ascent through the forest to the summit of the Hittisberg begins, where you are rewarded with a wonderful view of the Oberstorf mountains, the Hoher Ifen and …

Balderschwang Day 3
Today a little more leisurely. Fewer kilometers, elevation, no snow, but lots of forest. And yesterday's tour was cross-border, a 50D/50A tour. Today a purely Austrian affair. The weather wasn't great, but now the wellness was all the better. It should have been the other way around. Whatever
