The Schmalhorn is a 1952 m high mountain in the Allgäu Alps . The inconspicuous mountain lies in the Himmelschrofenzug between the Hinteres Wildgundkopf and the saddle zone of the Einödsberg . On the Schmalhorn, the border of the transition from the main dolomite in the north to the softer spotted marl in the south runs. The height of the Schmalhorn is at least 52 meters, its dominance 600 meters, with the Hintere Wildgundkopf being the reference mountain.
Ascent
There is no marked path leading to the Schmalhorn. However, it can be reached easily from Einödsberg. The further way north to the Hinteren Wildgundkopf is pathless and requires mountain experience.
