Alpkopf

Alpkopf rises to 1788 meters within the Bregenz Forest Mountains, featuring multiple trails that wind through dense forests and alpine meadows toward the peak.

The mountain paths around Alpkopf developed during the 19th century when local shepherds established routes for accessing high-altitude grazing areas for their livestock.

The mountain serves as a meeting point for regional hiking groups who gather annually to maintain traditional mountain paths and exchange Alpine experiences.

Hikers can access the summit through various marked trails from Dornbirn, with the ascent taking approximately four hours depending on the chosen route.

The summit offers clear views of Lake Constance and the Rhine Valley during föhn wind conditions, creating a natural observation point across three countries.
