View of Bettenried and the Allgäu Alps

Highlight • Viewpoint

A perfect alternative to the noisy route in the valley floor (Oberstdorf - Sonthofen). The route also offers a constant, stunning panorama all the way to the Tannheimer Valley.

Riedberg Pass climb from Fischen

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Pass
