October 16, 2021,Breitach Klamm – Steinfiguren Runde von Tiefenbach bei Oberstdorf

One of the most beautiful hikes.
You shouldn't forget change as the first part through the gorges requires entry.

Dear Peppi, so we thought, if the community misses us, we'll just start another nice tour⛰️.....no, actually we laughed a lot when we read your message at breakfast on our first day of vacation in Oberstdorf. 😃
We went to the Breitachklamm, which we unfortunately couldn't visit during our stay in April. Sensational! In this gorge you walk through impressive …

What a weather! Continuous since yesterday ☔️. I imagined Allgäu differently 😎. Going out is rewarded, and that's why we choose the Breitachklamm. It's always wet in there. Due to the rain, the Breitach carries a lot of water.
At the end we do a little tour around the Bärenfalle wildlife sanctuary zone with a snack 🍺 on the Müller …

Breitachklamm is known to be a wonderful place. From the alpine pasture, it's all asphalt, which is tough on your feet 😭. But the only other option here is to take the very short route. That's unthinkable for the protagonist 🙈
But the balance is quiet, with beautiful meadows and views. For orchid lovers, there are loads here, especially marsh …

After 2 years again the Breitachklamm.
Since today is the first time the weather is not so nice, we decided to go to the gorge.
It's just impressive. You can't even show it in the pictures. The stones are still hanging in the gap 😅 (about 20-30m above us).
The gorge can only be walked in one direction (bottom to …

Hiking through the Breitachklamm. An absolutely fascinating natural monument. High rock faces rise up and in between the water of the Breitach roars. A visit is definitely worthwhile at any time of the year. I found the sunlight shining in today particularly beautiful. Incidentally, you can only go through the gorge in one direction and it costs a few euros …
