On the Klobenstein smugglers' trail, a lot has been stolen together: some of the gorge landscape from Verdon, some of the lovely mountain landscape of the lowlands, a little bit of Bavaria and a little bit of Tyrol. The stolen goods can be experienced in hiking tours of different lengths lasting up to three hours.

Description

IN THE ALPINE CANYON BETWEEN BAVARIA & TYROL
From the village centre of Kössen turn into Mühlbachweg at the alpine dairy, use the underpass of the federal road and cross the Staffenbrücke. At the next crossing take the road to the right (Staffen) and after a few meters turn right again at the sign Klobenstein. Passing the Niederwies farm, the path joins the charming Schmugglerweg. Over the 33m long suspension bridge you reach the pilgrimage place Klobenstein. If you follow the path through the mixed forest along the Tiroler Ache, you will reach Ettenhausen in Bavaria after about 3.5 km.
