Glasfelderkopf, Mountain summit in Bavaria, Germany

Glasfelderkopf is a mountain peak in the Allgau Alps standing at approximately 2,270 meters with slopes composed of dolomite rock. The formations visible on the mountainside show the geological character typical of this region of the range.

The Glasfelderkopf is the southernmost summit of the mountain chain named after the Rauhhorn, separated from the Kesselspitz to the southeast by the Bockkarscharte. No marked trail leads to the top; climbers reach it either from the Bockkarscharte (grade I) or from the Lärchwand (grade II), and both approaches demand sure-footedness and mountain experience.
