July 25, 2024,🏰 Schloss Neuschwanstein – Tegelberghütte

When we set off this morning from the car park in Alterschrofen, we didn't know what a strenuous hike lay ahead of us. We set off with the aim of photographing Neuschwanstein Castle from the Marienbrücke, the typical postcard motif. The path up to the Marienbrücke was very steep and strenuous. But no matter which access you take, all paths …

They say Servus in the Allgäu. In the footsteps of King Ludwig, the so-called fairy tale king. The Bavarian Alps around Füssen, Schwandorf and Neuschwanstein are simply wonderful. I was lucky with the weather again. It was definitely strenuous, I hadn't planned on it being that tough, but it just turned out that way. I think there's a lot going …

I have no idea why, after the komoot update the tour was interrupted three times and I put it together manually. Therefore walking time is the time with all breaks this time!.

⚠️⚠️ Alpine tour.... and what a one... not for beginners... Partial risk of falling... It started at the castle 🏰 Neuschwanstein.... over the Marienbrücke there with an insane view... to the castle... further along the path up to the Tegelberg... Alpine experience is required... concentration is required... narrow paths... steep slopes right next door... some snow fields to cross... it …

May 25, 2026,Tegelberg und Branderschrofen - 25.05.2026

Today into the Tannheimer Tal to Nesselwängle. Previously to Schwangau and up the Tegelberg on foot. Steep but mostly shady ascent, without technical difficulties. Then a short trip to the Branderschrofen, which includes small climbing sections with rope securing. Back on the Tegelberg, a short stop for refreshments. Then down via the beautiful Maximiliansteig with dreamlike views of Neuschwanstein Castle. …

April 14, 2024,Marienbrücke und Tegelberghöhenweg

We were a little surprised to find ourselves standing in front of the closed Tegelbergbahn (revision until April 28th). What should we do? No matter, let's go, the only change is that we won't be taking the Tegelberggrat but just the high trail. It should be relaxed and give the body some rest. There would be a lot of people …

What a lovely tour! And completely doable with public transport. But let's start from the beginning.

We start at the valley station of the Tegelbergbahn bus stop and follow the Guardian Angel Trail. It takes me uphill wonderfully, first past the Rohrkopfhütte and finally to the Tegelberghütte.
