alpine Trails
Are you an experienced biker with good stamina and confident handling on alpine trails? Then the Allgäu Alps offer you just the right mix of adrenaline, spectacular views, and secluded mountain nature. Here is a small tour recommendation: The tour starts in Pfronten and initially leads along wide forest paths up to the Breitenalpe. It then continues steeply uphill on narrow, root-covered single trails to the Breitenberg summit region, where you can enjoy impressive views of the Allgäu and Tyrolean Alps. The descent takes you down technically demanding paths with steep hairpin bends, rocks, and root passages towards the Eisenberg Valley, interrupted again and again by short counter-climbs.
cycling with children
fun for the whole family
The region also offers numerous opportunities for children. For example, a 10-12 km tour starts in Eisenberg and initially leads leisurely along flat field and forest paths to Kögelweiher, where children can take a break or let off steam on the shore. The route continues on well-maintained paths through meadows and small forests, past picturesque villages, without any major climbs – ideal for little legs and first cycling experiences. Halfway along the route, it's worth stopping at Seepark Schwaltenweiher for a picnic or a refreshing swim. The route then takes you back to Eisenberg along gentle paths, past meadows and farms, so that the children have plenty to discover along the way.
