Hochgrat, Summit in Allgäu Alps, Bavaria, Germany
The Hochgrat summit rises to 1834 meters and stands as the highest point of the Nagelfluhkette mountain range in the Allgäu Alps region.
The German Alpine Club established the Staufner Haus mountain station near Hochgrat, making the peak accessible to mountaineers since the early development of Alpine tourism.
Local mountain guides organize regular guided tours throughout the year, sharing knowledge about Alpine flora, fauna, and geological formations with visitors.
A cable car system operates from the valley station to the upper areas, reducing the hiking time and making the mountain accessible to visitors of different fitness levels.
The summit provides a clear view extending from Lake Constance to the central Alps, spanning three countries across the German, Austrian, and Swiss borders.
