A monument of stone rises against the clear sky - the Hochvogel, 2592 metres high, a proud guardian of the Allgäu Alps. From the Koblat high trail on the Nebelhorn, the view opens up into the Obertal valley, where lush green alpine meadows spread out like a living carpet. There, where the grass shimmers in the sun and the murmur of the streams quietly fills the valley, the quiet journey of the view up to the jagged ridges of the Rosszahn group begins.
The Hochvogel towers above like an ancient king, its stone crown moulded by wind and weather. Its flanks are criss-crossed with furrows, cracks and stratifications that carry stories from thousands of years - stories of storms and ice, of change and constancy. It seems unapproachable and yet familiar, a symbol of the power that rests in nature.
In the evening light, the sky takes on a soft colour and the shadows play across the craggy slopes. Up here, you can feel the vastness of Europe in a single silhouette that inspires awe. Travellers on this high-altitude trail encounter not just a landscape, but a world that speaks of eternity in silence - a poem of rock, sky and earth.
