Hiking parking lot in Achtal in winterPhoto: Hartmut Wimmer, Outdooractive Premium
Summit route from the deep freezer of the Achtal valley to the Schönkahler.
Beautiful summit route between Allgäu and Tannheimer Tal. This route is marked within the framework of the DAV project "Natürlich auf Tour" and is therefore easy to find.
Derived from the technical difficulty and the stamina requirements.
