Alpgundkopf

Alpgundkopf is a mountain summit in the Allgäu Alps that stands at 2,177 meters above sea level. A ridge runs southward from the peak toward the neighboring Roßgundkopf, connecting the two summits across the alpine terrain.

This peak formed during the Alpine orogeny when tectonic forces uplifted ancient marine sediments into mountains. The geological processes created the current ridge systems and peak formations visible across the region.

The mountain area maintains traditional Alpine farming practices, with local shepherds utilizing the Kühgund grazing grounds during summer months.

Reaching this summit demands climbing experience and solid navigation skills since marked trails do not lead directly to the top. Plan for challenging terrain and prepare carefully before attempting the ascent.

The nearby Guggersee lake reflects the surrounding mountain peaks and creates mirror images of the rock formations on its surface. This visual phenomenon offers an unusual view of the region's geological structures from below.
