The Rubihorn is a 1957 meter high mountain in the Allgäu Alps . It is located east of Oberstdorf and, together with the Nebelhorn, belongs to the so-called thumb group .
Rockslide
On July 9, 1987, a rock fall occurred on the north side of the Rubihorn , in which between 10,000 and 15,000 m³ of rubble fell into the valley. The traces of this event can still be seen from afar.
Hiking trails
- Reichenbach (car park) - Gaisalpe (1165 m) - Unterer Gaisalpsee (1508 m) - summit (this variant takes about 3.5 hours, surefootedness and a head for heights are absolutely necessary)
- Nebelhornbahn (middle station Vordere Seealpe 1280 m) - Roßbichel (1465 m) - summit (with this variant you have already gained a lot of height by taking the Nebelhornbahn , but surefootedness and a head for heights are also required on this route)
