Höferspitze is a 2,131 m side summit of the Heiterberg in the Allgäu Alps, above the Kleinwalsertal in the ridge framing Baad. The Weiße Schrofen lies to its northwest, the Hochalppass to its northeast. Its marked routes run from Neßlegg and from the Hochtannbergpass or Hochkrumbach over the east ridge, the latter reserved for experienced mountaineers.

The Höferspitze lies in the Baad mountain setting above the Kleinwalsertal, the valley that bounds the village of Baad to the west. The marked routes to the summit come from Neßlegg and from the Hochtannbergpass or Hochkrumbach, so the paths are used by walkers and, on the eastern ridge, by experienced mountaineers.

The ascent requires good physical fitness and sturdy footwear for steep and rocky sections. Visitors should start early and be prepared for changing weather conditions at higher elevations.

Höferspitze is only 0.8 km from the Heiterberg summit, and its east ridge route from the Hochtannbergpass or Hochkrumbach is a marked alpine trail reserved for experienced mountaineers; the easier approach comes from Neßlegg.
