...runs from Oberstdorf past the golf course and
the Christlessee Lake to Spielmannsau – and can be
used by anyone. The small, Alpine settlement in
the heart of the Trettachtal Valley some seven kilometres
south of Oberstdorf is the perfect starting
point for many hikes. Thanks to its proximity to the
Kemptner Hütte, for example, this even includes
hikes along the E5 European long-distance hiking
route from Oberstdorf to Merano.
