Description:
Our hike takes us from Jungholz in Tyrol up to the 1695 m high Wertacher Hörnle in the Allgäu Alps. We hike mostly on narrow meadow paths and groomed hiking trails with an easy to moderate ascent to the summit. On the way, we enjoy the beautiful views of the Upper and Eastern Allgäu Alpine foothills.Directions:
The starting point is the church in Jungholz. From there, we walk towards the ski lifts and turn left at the ski lift garage towards the Vordere Sorgalpe. After around 20 minutes, we walk past the Sorg Alpe in the direction of the main road. After briefly crossing the road, we take the direct route to Wertacher Hörnle. Always following the signs and the hiking trail, we reach the summit of the Wertacher Hörnle and thus also the end point of the tour.Tip:
