Very nice path on the ridge to the Riedbergerhorn. On the way to the summit there is a wonderful view of the Allgäu mountains to the north and south.

View over Mittelalpe

From the Mittelalpe a 300Hm climb goes up to the Riedhorn Pass. Not easy, but really worth it 👍🏼

The hike starts in Grasgehren and can be done with regular mountain boots. Hiking poles are recommended. However, many people do the route with snowshoes. The Obere Mittelalpe is a great place to rest.

Hike to the Riedberger Horn – Flowers, Summit Views & Kaiserschmarren (sweet pancakes)
Start at the paid parking lot at the Grasgehren mountain hut. First, a steady climb on a wide path, later along narrow alpine paths to the ridge – the final stretch to the summit cross is a bit steeper, but safer. At the top, you'll be rewarded …

With heavy thunderstorms still lingering during the night and in the morning, it initially didn't look like a hike. Until the weather suddenly improved around midday. Mountains, after all. 🤷‍♂️

So I packed my hiking backpack and drove up the Riedberg Pass, Germany's highest drivable mountain pass at 1,407 m, and to the Grasgehrenhütte. This is not only a meeting …

Very nice round, partly quite steep ascent and descent, whereby the great view of the mountain panorama and the great foresight is absolutely worth the effort. Can only recommend the round, including a stop at Hörnle Alpe and at the end in Grasgehren. 👍😀

Nice round with a great panoramic view of the entire Allgäu Alps. On the way back you can stop at the Mittelalpe or at the car park. We stopped at the car park for a coffee and Kaiserschmarrn at normal prices and a good portion.👍

Short round with friends from the Riedbergpass over the Riedberger Horn to the Mittelalpe 😎

Showing Translation

Very demanding tour and my first snowshoe hike😊
It was an exciting tour both uphill and downhill.
The weather changed for a moment and you could hardly see your hand in front of your face, but a short time later the sun came out again and the mountain shone in the best light.
Hikers encouraged me on the last third …
