Hiking trails
The hike to the Einstein, on which a narrow steep path leads, promises a good all-round view of the other Tannheim mountains and the Allgäu Alps as a whole : to the north you can see the Ostallgäu Alpine foothills, to the east you can see the Aggenstein and the west walls of the Zugspitze , in the west the Wertacher Hörnle , in the south among other peaks the Gaishorn , the Rauhhorn and the Kugelhorn . Dieter Seibert speaks of a "top-class viewpoint".
There are two different accesses to the summit: the southern path leads up from Tannheim, the northern, also a little trickier, starts in the municipality of Pfronten , it then crosses the state border between the German Free State of Bavaria and the Austrian state of Tyrol north of Grän .
The tour requires surefootedness and caution when wet, because the flanks consist of steep craggy terrain .
