Hiking

What a view! This varied half-day tour offers sweeping views over rolling meadows, hills, and picturesque lakes. In less than an hour, you'll reach the high plateau on the Buchenberg mountain. At the top, a breathtaking panorama of the foothills and the Alpine massif opens up. You can often even watch paragliders gliding silently into the sky.

On the so-called "Ebene" plateau, the tour can be extended with the high-altitude circular trail, which leads through tranquil mountain forests and across alpine pastures and moorland. Those who want to shorten the ascent can take the comfortable chairlift up to the top. The descent leads along a gnarled, root-covered path, which offers repeated, magnificent views. After this wonderful, refreshing hike, you'll finally reach your starting point in Buchberg.

The stream path is always a highlight! The little robber's daughter is always excited. Patience is required – not for hectic parents.

After a 6-hour drive, we headed straight to the Buchenberg (we hadn't checked in yet) for 2.5 km at an average gradient of 20% in 30-degree weather, where we were rewarded with our first 🍺. A very nice, steep path covered in roots up to the alpine pasture. The reward at the top was a magnificent panorama. 👍The descent was …

Wonderful round in dream weather and snow over the Buchenberg.
The weather was awesome 🔨.
Snow was more than expected.
What a shame, the Buchenberg Alm was closed 😏.


Caution: Alpine experience, sure-footedness and a head for heights are required for the tour!!

Nice tour, but it's steep up and down. But the food at the top is great and includes a very nice view.

Nice little hike to the Buchenbergalm with a wonderful panorama. The ascent is via the stream path through the forest. The root path with the adjoining creek was also a great experience for our dog up to the summit. Once at the top, you will be rewarded with an incredible panoramic view. On the one hand you can look deep …

Fast circular route to the Buchenberg. Nice hike, mostly through a forest, with a beautiful view of the surrounding lakes from above.

Today we finally made it back to Buchenberg. A small but beautiful mountain with beautiful views of the mountains and lakes. Starting at the free parking lot at the valley station in Buching, we climbed along the Kulturenweg (Culture Trail). At the top, we enjoyed an isotonic cold drink 😉 and Allgäu cheese spaetzle. This time, the return journey took …
