On the west side of the Breitenberg, the entire slope is covered with a pine forest.

June 4, 2022,Breitenberg [Hindelang] (1899 m)
Tour on the Hindelanger Breitenberg 😀☀️🥾🏔😀

The starting point was the Saw car park in front of the Hinterstein village entrance. Via the Jägersteig first into the Retterschwanger valley to "Hinter der Kehle". This is where the ascent to the Breitenberg and the Rotspitze begins in the direction of the Häbelesgund refuge (1455). Here the path to Breitenberg and Rotspitze …

Today our hike should lead us to the Breitenberg, which catches our eye again and again when we look to Hinterstein from the direction of Bad Hindelang.

We park our car on the hiking car park in Hinterstein, the day ticket costs € 10, parking is free with the Allgäu-Walser Card.

Unfortunately the view from the mountain wasn't that good, but it was still a beautiful tour. I can only recommend it.

Ridge hiking deluuuuxe 🔥 And hey, we found fresh snow too! After I didn't manage the tour in Sommee, it was my turn today. Great views, great ridge, a bit of scrambling - I love it 😍

Ps. Please find out about the tour & the avalanche situation before you repeat the tour. The tour is demanding and definitely not …

The tour from Hinterstein to the Rotspitze via the Hohe Gänge to the Breitenberg is very varied and can be recommended without reservation. But you have to plan a day, depending on ability and amount of hiking you can leave time on the via ferrata and the 4 peaks invite you to take longer breaks.

For me and @derKlein today we only went to the Breitenberg near Bad Hindelang.

Difficulty: T3

From Hinterstein we climbed over the Eben Alpe. Nice long path.

Shortly before the summit there is still some slight scrambling.

Once at the top, enjoyed the view and a nice chat with a few hikers.
