Description:
As the area around the Vilsalpsee has been designated as a nature reserve for over 50 years and is also a Natura-2000 area, this hike is particularly attractive. 

Directions:
Starting point and also end point is the car park at the Tannheimer Bergbahnen. From here we hike to the roundabout, and there we continue in southern direction. We follow this road to the natural jewel Vilsalpsee. Counterclockwise, passing the Fischerstube over the bridge, we walk towards Weltlingalpe. The gravel path, wide and easy to walk on, runs along the shore on this side of the lake. At the rear end of the lake is the farmed Vilsalpe. Past the alp, the slightly gravel path continues towards the end of the valley. After a short time the 400 meter high mountain goat waterfall appears. We follow the circular path and get back to the Vilsalpe. Here we follow the same path back to the starting point.

Tip:
Fantastic natural scenery.

Safety guidelines:
It should be noted that in mountaineering there is an increased risk of accidents and injuries. Despite careful route planning, a basic risk always remains. Tour preparation through endurance sports, appropriate technical training and further education as well as personal prudence reduces the danger of accidents and risks. However, please never forget that the weather in the mountains can change very quickly.  Stay on the marked hiking trails.

Equipment:
An up-to-date and well-kept/maintained equipment (shoes, sticks and clothes) not only provides a considerable amount of safety but also makes winter hiking much easier. Sun protection (high protection factor and possibly sunglasses) as well as sufficient liquid should not be forgotten.
