Riedholzer Kugel

The Riedholzer Kugel is a rounded mountain in the Allgau Alps featuring forests and meadows on its slopes. The summit provides views across the surrounding ranges and connects to nearby peaks through established trails.

The peak took its rounded shape through ice age processes that also sculpted neighboring summits in the region. Erosion and vegetation patterns have continued to define the landscape over thousands of years.

Local mountaineering traditions incorporate this peak into regular hiking circuits, connecting with neighboring summits like the Iberger Kugel.

The mountain can be approached from several starting points, with difficulty and duration varying based on your chosen route. Good hiking boots and weather-appropriate clothing are essential since conditions change quickly at higher elevations.

Along the hiking route sits an operating alpine hut serving regional specialties to passing hikers and providing a rest stop. This rustic shelter shows traditional mountain building methods and offers a genuine glimpse of mountain hospitality.
