Mädelegabel, Summit in Allgäu Alps, Bavaria, Germany.
Mädelegabel reaches an elevation of 2,645 meters with walls extending up to 400 meters, forming a distinctive trio with Trettachspitze and Hochfrottspitze mountains.
The mountain name originated from 'Mähder', referring to mown mountain meadows, and initially designated all three peaks in this section of the Allgäu ridge.
The mountain stands at the intersection of German and Austrian territories, marking a natural border between Bavaria and Tyrol through its main ridge.
Three mountain refuges serve as starting points for the ascent: Waltenberger House at 2.5 hours, Kemptner Hütte at 2.75 hours, and Rappenseehütte at 5 hours.
The southeast flank of Mädelegabel contains the Schwarzmilzferner glacier, adding to the geological diversity of this Alpine formation.
