Laufbacher Eck, 2178 m

Panoramic trail to look at and enjoyThe trail from the Nebelhorn region to Laufbacher Eck is one of the most beautiful high-altitude trails in the Allgäu Alps. At an altitude of almost 2000 meters, it winds its way high above the Oytal valley along dizzyingly steep meadow slopes and always has new landscapes to offer. The famous Höfats towers up with its vertical grassy flanks and sharp ridges. The blue eye of the Seealpsee shines out of the meadows. The bizarrely shaped mountain form of the Schneck captivates the eye. Wildly rugged rock faces of main dolomite contrast with the green Flysch mountains far above. Many a rare plant can be discovered on the flower-rich meadow slopes. Countless mountain ridges and peaks line the horizon. Finally, at Laufbacher Eck, a steep grassy triangle between the Oy and Bärgündeletal valleys, the view of His Majesty, the Hochvogel, with his rocky court all around, is fascinating. The high-level trail now leads down into the head of the Bärgündeletal valley and on to the Prinz-Luitpold-Haus. As a day tour, it is a good idea to return to the Nebelhornbahn cable car along the same route. With the constantly changing perspectives, there are still new things to discover on the way back. Another option is the descent into the Oytal valley, although this requires some stamina and is quite strenuous with a total of 1600 meters of descent.(Automatically translated by DeepL)
