The Gimpel and the Rote Flüh are also affectionately known as 'Tannheimer Dolomiten' with their nearly vertical slopes and extensive Karfeldern. If you wander up the dramatic slopes to the summit, you'll be impressed by the scenery.

A magnificent mountain tour over rocky and airy paths in the Tannheimer Valley.

Via ferrata difficulty C and easy climbing UIAA I

Starting from the Gimpelhaus parking lot (€5/day), this tour takes you comfortably over to the Adlerhorst mountain inn. You leave this to the left, and shortly after, a forest path curves up to the right, leading directly to …

Friedberger Steig – a relatively easy and short via ferrata, but one that captivates with its incredibly beautiful views ☺️ The ascents and descents are long if, like us, you don't take the cable car to the Füssener Jöchle. We definitely found the ascent via Gimpelhaus and thus the via ferrata on the way up to be the more pleasant …

Nice weekend for the boys with the son: mountain climbing, eating chips and drinking beer/soda 😜. Today the little rascal wanted to crack the 1000m elevation, which he managed impressively. At first he found the climb a bit boring and his heel hurt, I thought it wouldn't work. But then when the path became more exciting and the old snow …

Today the Rote Flüh and the Friedberger via ferrata were on the program ⛰.

It started in Nesselwängle in the direction of Gimpelhaus, on the ascent you could marvel at how the paths are maintained: fly up gravel with a heli and chute every minute and with a team of 7 people the material is distributed and compacted 👍 (as …

May 25, 2026,🤩☀️🇦🇹 Über den Friedberger Klettersteig 🧗‍♀️und Rote Flüh auf den Gimpel 👍

No matter which side you look at this summit group from - the duo Rote Flüh and Gimpel always looks impressive 🤩. Therefore, these peaks have been on my wish list for a long time, twice because of the Friedberger Klettersteig, which I haven't done yet.

We took advantage of a good weather window for a strenuous, black tour over old snow fields. Chamois, Alpine choughs and golden eagles were in sight. As was the Haldensee. The highlight was the Friedberger KS up to the Schartschrofen with some C sections.
