The "Grenzgänger" is a multi-day route in the Allgäu Alps. The core feature is the constant crossing of the Austrian and German border between the Tannheimer Valley, Hintersteiner Valley, and Lech Valley. The circuit around the Hochvogel as well as the visit to the well-known Schrecksee are only two of the highlights. Several of the highest waterfalls in Germany (stage 5 and 6) await the hiker, as well as a gloomy north face (stage 2), a mountain that splits (stage 5), extensive flower meadows, and magnificent panoramas.

Schöne Tour mit ganz tollet Aussicht. Die Zeitangaben sind zwar fast immer sehr großzüg angegeben, hier scheint es mir aber doch sehr hoch. Wir sind die Tour ganz locker in unter 4 Stunden gegangen.
