Scrambling over the rocks

Highlight • Climb

The ascent is beautiful, but also very steep. It can be mastered with a ladder and rope insurance. Attention danger of falling rocks!

Säuling Summit

Highlight • Summit

Very beautiful, exposed mountain with a view of the Alpine foothills and the northern limestone Alps, such as the Lechtal, Ammergau, Allgäu and across to the Wetterstein.
The Säuling has a double peak, this is the western summit at 2039 m.

Säuling Peak

Highlight • Summit

7.30 km

Steep ascent through ripped rock to the saddle where the national border is. The lower part of the ascent to the summit is well secured with ropes. In the upper section then easy climbing to the summit cross.

Wildsulzhütte

Highlight • Mountain Hut

At the Wildsulzhütte, the path to the Säuling splits from the Älpele. Up around the left and around the Pilgerschrofen (right) down again is the easier option. However, please only with sure-footedness, a head for heights and physical condition!
