Oytal
The Oytal is a valley in the Oberallgäu district in the Allgäu Alps that branches off from the Trettachtal in an easterly direction with the Oybach near Gruben in Markt Oberstdorf .
The Dr.-Hohenadl-Weg leads along the Oybach . A road, which is only approved for motor vehicle traffic, leads from Oberstdorf approx. 5 km to half of the valley to the Oytalhaus at an altitude of 1010 m . The Untere Gutenalp ( 1048 m ) and the Käseralp ( 1405 m ) can be reached from the Oytalhaus . There are snack stations there in summer . On the way there, the Stuibenfall, a striking, free-standing waterfall, is passed. Below the Stuibenfall, the Oybach often seeps into the creek bed and only reappears below the Oytalhaus.
The experienced hiker can reach the Nebelhorn ( 2224 m ) via the Oytal in 6 to 8 hours via the high alpine and well-known glide path. Other hiking routes lead over the Laufbacher Eck ( 2178 m ), the Kleinen ( 2096 m ) and Großer Seekopf ( 2085 m ) and the Schochen ( 2100 m ) or to the high Seealpsee ( 1628 m ). Alpine experience, surefootedness and a head for heights as well as ankle-high mountain boots with a good treaded sole are basic requirements for these activities.
