Schlossbächel valley

Highlight • Trail

Extremely many stairs. It was definitely too many for me. The path is not for me. I prefer to walk uphill. Still beautiful scenery around the waterfall and waterway

July 6, 2024,Nesselwang: Wasserfallweg, Schloßbächeltal, Höllschlucht

A really great tour, with beautiful views back to the Allgäu and ahead to the Alps! The climb is also huge, with 800 meters of elevation in one go, and therefore not suitable for everyone. But the views, streams and waterfalls make up for the exertion!

Short trip to the Allgäu ☺️
Beautiful, lonely snow circuit over the Höllschlucht to the Kappeler Alp and back down via the Wurzelsteig and Wasserfallweg.
Most of the paths snow-covered and untouched 🥰
All good to walk, only down the root path Grödel are recommended.

Our traditional siblings "TVI Memorial Tour" took us to the Allgäu this year. This year we have extended our company to 5 days and combined it with a cultural highlight (visiting the Passion Play in Oberammergau).

May 2, 2026,Wasserfall 🌊 Kappeler Alp 1340m⛰️

The hike from Nesselwang to Kappeler Alp (approx. 1,340 m) is a popular, moderately difficult mountain hike. The path leads along the waterfall trail, through mountain forest and offers beautiful views, but requires good basic fitness, often with approx. 480 meters of altitude to overcome.
Root paths, switchbacks and constructed stairs.
From the Alp, you can reach the Alpspitze (1,575 …

This route is great. We used the Alpspitzbahn cable car to go uphill. Highly recommended when it's dry. When it's wet, the descent is very slippery.
