Seelekopf

Seelekopf is a mountain summit in the Allgäu Alps standing at 1663 meters in elevation. Its slopes feature limestone formations and are crossed by several marked hiking trails suited to different ability levels.

A cable car system called Hochgratbahn was built in the early 1970s, significantly improving access to this peak and neighboring summits. This development opened mountain exploration to a wider range of visitors.

The mountain serves as an important hiking destination for locals and visitors exploring the Allgäu Alps. The well-maintained paths reflect how mountain access and exploration are woven into the region's outdoor culture.

The Hochgratbahn cable car station is accessible by public transportation and serves as the starting point for several marked hiking routes. Visitors should bring weather-appropriate clothing and sturdy footwear, as mountain conditions can change quickly.

The mountain's geology includes Nagelfluh conglomerates made of rounded stones naturally cemented together, creating distinctive rock patterns visible along the hiking trails. This geological feature tells the story of ancient mountain formation processes.
