Einödsberg

Einödsberg rises to 1589 meters above sea level in the Allgäu Alps, forming a subsidiary peak beneath the Spätengundkopf within the Himmelschrofenzug range.

The mountain's alpine regulations, established in 1482, represent one of the oldest documented land management systems in the Allgäu region for grazing activities.

Traditional alpine farming practices at Einödsberg shifted from intensive sheep grazing to sustainable cattle management, preserving mountain meadow ecosystems.

The four-hour round trip hike starts from either Birgsau or Einödsbach, with the southern approach requiring advanced hiking experience due to narrow paths.

The mountain features two distinct alpine huts: Vordere Einödsbergalpe and Hintere Einödsbergalpe, positioned at different elevations along the mountainside.
