Safety information
Before every hike on the Allgäu Hiking Trilogy, you should basically check the weather. Rain and/or fog can greatly reduce visibility, making it harder to find your way. At the same time, prolonged wet weather increases the risk of slipping.
As the Himmelsstürmer route passes through medium to high elevations of the Allgäu Alps, alpine experience and sure-footedness are essential.
Therefore, you should also expect exposed sections that are slippery and prone to falling, as well as unsecured walking passages over rugged terrain with loose scree, and even snowfields in mid-summer. You should be sure-footed and not afraid of heights.
For your safety, rope protections are installed in some places. Some sections also require more endurance due to basic climbing passages. Here, the use of hands may also be necessary. Additionally, there are some passages
