Trail Between Sura and Helminger Alpe

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Komoot says S0. Nothing is dangerous or blocked here, but an MTB is an advantage on the surface. Some short ascents / descents are technically interesting due to the uneven, stony ground.

September 21, 2023,Gunzesried Säge Obere Wihelmine Alpe Balderschwang Hittisau Lecknertal Gunzesried Säge
Today I cycled back to Gunzesried with Marianne @Maryann from Gunzeried Säge via Balderschwang, Hitisau, and Lecknetal. The first 8 km went up 650 meters up to 1520m. Then down to Hitisau for a cappuccino and cake but it went further down to 750m and then climbed again to 1320m. The landscape compensates for every meter we had to drive …

Super nice tour from Hittisau through the Lecknertal with small "trail sections". It can be very muddy after rain.
Just before the Gunzesrieder Säge, the path goes uphill again to the Alpe Höllritze.
If you like, you can hike the Bleicherhorn and the Höllritzereck. You have a beautiful panoramic view from there.
then it goes back down to Balderschwang quite …

A very nice, varied tour. You pass a lake, a stream, and beautiful mountains.
If you leave the gravel or asphalt road, things can get a bit rough. In Balderschwang, the tour leads onto the road, which isn't pleasant due to the heavy traffic. In summary, I'd happily do it again, but only in good weather. In Hittisau, be sure …

Fantastic weather ☀️thinking about a racing bike or MTB or a mountain tour. Off into the mountains on the MTB and off we go☀️⛰️🚲. Start at Gunzesrieder Säge, not cross-country skiing today, MTB fun over Höllritzen at 1500m high😅 Descent to Balderschwang. Quickly past the 3000 year old yew tree🌳, the tree would definitely have a lot to tell 🙈. …

Beautiful tour starting and ending in Hittisau.
Then through the Lecknertal, past the Lecknersee and many alpine pastures and snack stations.
The path between Helmingen Alpe (just before the German border) and the Sura Alpe (in Germany) is only a very poor road that, as it looks, is hardly ever used by vehicles. Some soft and wet spots - but …

Very scenic tour. Partly difficult with extreme long-lasting gradients. Some of the paths are sections of streams and are very rough and steep. A short trail (approx. 200 m), which is not that easy, especially when it is wet, is also included.
Tour is a lot of fun and is scenically grandiose with always beautiful views.
In any case, you …

Nice tour over the Alpe Helmingen. Here the mountain cheese is still made over an open fire according to the old tradition.

I wanted to see if I could get up the path to Alpe Obere Wilhelmine in Balderschwang. It was actually too steep for me and I had to push in places. Maybe the tour the day before and the kayak training on Friday were too much. Then I went down into the Autal and then over the Scheidwangpass - the …
