Schwarzer Grat Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the platform of the eight-story tower, you have a wonderful panoramic view, stretching as far as Lake Constance and Switzerland on a clear day. Outside, there are several benches with tables for resting, and there's a playground for children. Inside the tower, on the first and second floors, there are benches with tables for shelter in bad weather.

Magnificent woodland on the Black Ridge

Highlight • Trail

Extensive forests surround the Schwarzer Grat. Directly near the summit, you hike through a lush green forest that repeatedly offers views of the Allgäu region. The partially exposed roots are particularly impressive.

Schwarzen Grat Trail – Narrow Section

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Sweet trail section of the Schwarzen-Grat-Trail that leads from the tower almost to Osterösch. Be careful with the crossing paths and the many pedestrians! Always drive on sight!
