September 22, 2022,Rund um den Widderstein (Walser Omgang Wanderung, Kleinwalsertal)

difficult tour. Not really recommended for snow. But of course a beautiful panorama. Surefootedness, strength and endurance required. Due to the snow and the slippery passages, we needed a total of 9 hours.

Some of the data is incorrect due to GPS issues at the beginning, such as the lowest point.

It was another beautiful hike today with a great mountain panorama and alpine pastures. The food at Bernhard's Gemstel Hut is very, very delicious. The wait is worth it.

Swap autumn for winter is the motto of the tour today. While the deciduous trees below are still bursting with bright colors, the heights are already covered by a delicate layer of snow. A fantastic sight. The focus of the hike is the mighty Widderstein in Vorarlberg in the Allgäu Alps. The rocky summit of the Großer Widderstein rises to …
