Allerleigrubenspitze Trail

The trail typically begins from Obernberg, often near Gasthaus Egg or Gasthaus Waldesruh. These locations usually offer parking facilities for hikers.

The terrain is varied. You'll initially traverse forested areas, which can be steep in parts, sometimes following a clear forest path and at other times crossing it.

The Karwendel mountain range borders the view to the north.
