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.

A beautiful tour, especially the observation tower and the alpine pasture. Highly recommended.

Because of the high temperatures that were forecast, we were supposed to walk mostly through the forest today. That worked out, but we still sweated a lot. 😊

We were rewarded with the great panoramic view from the observation tower on the black ridge.

The lovely rest areas with sun loungers and hammocks were particularly special.

Start/end point at a small hiking car park.
From our way went some 2m wide forest paths that were closed for animal welfare reasons (about 8). That doesn't make tour planning easy.

Start from the hiking car park at the end of the village of Grossholzleuten. From there it goes on decent hiking trails first and immediately uphill for an hour. After a short breather on a level running track, the second ascent comes, not as long but just as tiring. Then we continue in the direction of Schwarzer Grad and the …

Before we could check into our organic hotel in Maierhöfen, we took advantage of the calm weather for a wonderful hike to the Black Ridge. We parked - free of charge - at the community center, but there is a great hiking car park, also free of charge, on the right in front of the Gasthof Adler, right at the …
