Description

Description:
Beautiful winter hike through the snow-covered nature and landscape of Tyrol. After around 30 minutes, we cross the border from Tyrol into the Allgäu. After around 35 minutes, we reach Sorg Alpe 1, our first refreshment stop in a rustic and cozy alpine hut. After another 15 minutes or so, the trail leads past Sorg Alpe 2. Here, too, you can stop for a bite to eat and a warming drink.

To complete the circular route, we head back towards Jungholz on well-signposted and groomed paths. After around 35-40 minutes, we reach the starting point of the tour, the "Mariä Namen" church in Jungholz.


A winter hike of medium difficulty lies behind us, during which we were able to enjoy the special atmosphere and the uniqueness of nature, culture and landscape.

Directions:
From the Jungholz church, we walk past the ski lift. Directly at the ski lift garage, we turn onto the official hiking trail to the Sorg Alps. Through forests and nature, we first reach Sorg Alpe 1. The trail continues past Sorg Alpe 2. Immediately afterwards, we reach a small ascent with beautiful views of the surrounding area. After around 2 hours, we return to the starting point, the church in Jungholz.Tip:
