Tegelberg

Highlight • Summit

We hike here quite often, it's our local mountain!

This one even made it into our kitchen, as a glass splashback!

Schutzengelweg Trail

Highlight • Trail

Great way, but it also has a lot in it. You can partly dodge on the slightly flatter ski trail, which extends the route a bit. But at the end …

View of the Alpsee and the castles

Highlight • Viewpoint

Fantastic view down the ski slope. There is also a hiking trail here as a quick alternative to the Schutzengelweg, but it is painfully steep in both directions.

View of Forggensee and Bannwaldsee

Highlight • Viewpoint

The best view of the two lakes is on a hike to the Dreh- and Rohrkopfhütte or from the Fischersteig, that is the path between the Schwan and Alpsee.

July 20, 2023,Wanderung nach Rohrkopfhütte

Beautiful ascent from the Tegelbergbahn valley (but note that there is a charge/expensive - alternatively there is a Drehhütte car park to the east), nice huts, delicious dishes, but unfortunately the descent is mostly asphalt.

May 29, 2024,Tegelberg Talstation - Schutzengelweg 👼- Rohrkopfhütte 🏚- Drehhütte

The plan was to have a chilled day from the Tegelberg 🚡 mountain station over the Vordermühlberger Älpele to the Drehhütte 😀
But things turned out differently 🙈 Tegelbergbahn out of service due to unexpected maintenance work 😱 so we took the guardian angel 👼 path up 🥵 to the Rohrkopfhütte. From there the chilled part began 😅 After a …

December 8, 2024,Wanderung auf die Drehhütte 🚶‍♂️🚶‍♂️🏔️🍺mit anschließenden Besuch des Füssener Adventsmarktes💫

Today we went through the slightly wintry landscape from the Tegelbergbahn car park (day ticket for parking €5) along the Schutzengelweg past the Rohrkopfhütte and on to the Drehhütte. There we had lunch and something delicious for dessert.
The tour was rounded off with a visit to the Füssen Advent market.

August 7, 2021,Schwangau Rohrkopfhütte 🏰 ⛰ 🦋

You can already see the world-famous Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwangau castles from the Tegelbergbahn car park. But that wasn't the goal today. From the valley station it went on forest roads, gravel paths and serpentine forest paths along the Guardian Angel Trail. Constant sunshine and little shadowy places drive the hiking pulse upwards because it is (of course) permanently, really permanently …

December 11, 2024,Rohrkopfhütte - Drehhütte 🚶🏼‍♀️🚶‍♂️

Today we went on a nice walk from the free parking lot at the Drehhütte towards the valley station of the Tegelbergbahn and then through the beautiful, snow-covered forest to the Rohrkopfhütte (closed until December 18th). From the terrace there was an amazing view of the mountains peeking through the clouds. It quickly got very cold, so we hurried on. …

Due to Saharan dust in the air, not such a nice view

March 5, 2025,Rohrkopfrunde bei Schwangau

A nice hike on well-developed paths around the Rohrkopf near Schwangau.

The starting point is the lower parking lot of the Tegelbergbahn. Here you go past the striking Hornburg and past it onto the road that leads directly to the Drehhütte. Up to this point the path is almost completely asphalted - there are much nicer ones than that, but …
