The spectacular hike to Biberkopf: An adventure in the Allgäu
The mountains are calling! And for adventure seekers, there is hardly anything better than a hike through the picturesque Allgäu. One of the most impressive tours leads to Biberkopf, the sixth highest mountain in Germany.
Starting point: Fellhornbahn near Oberstdorf
The journey begins at the Fellhornbahn car park near Oberstdorf. The path soon leads through idyllic meadows and cow pastures that make every nature lover's heart beat faster. A short coffee break at the Enzianhütte offers the opportunity to take in the breathtaking surroundings.
Target: The Beaver Head
The Biberkopf rises majestically 2,599 meters into the sky and promises an unforgettable hiking experience. But the way there is not always easy. Steep paths, stony scree and even climbing passages challenge the hiker. But the effort is worth it. The view from the peaks is simply breathtaking.
The route
After the Enzianhütte we continue to the Rappenseehütte, a popular destination for day trips. From there the demanding climb to the Rappenseekopf begins. The sun is burning, the path becomes steeper, but the view makes up for any effort. After the Rappenseekopf we continue to the Hochroten Kopf, another impressive peak on this tour.
The final climb to Biberkopf is particularly challenging. Steep gullies, climbing passages and over 100 meters of altitude must be overcome. But once you get to the top, you will be rewarded with an incomparable panorama.
The Descent
Instead of going back the same way, many hikers decide to cross the Biberkopf. This route is technically demanding and requires full concentration. Secured places, narrow ridges and exposed passages make the descent a real adventure. But the beauty of nature, which appears in the evening sun, makes all efforts forgotten.
Conclusion
The hike to Biberkopf in the Allgäu is an unforgettable experience. It challenges the hiker, but also rewards him with breathtaking views and unforgettable moments. If you want to experience the Allgäu from its most beautiful side, you shouldn't miss this tour.
