The Second Schafalpenkopf (also Mittlerer Schafalpenkopf ) is a 2302 meter high mountain in the Allgäu Alps . It is part of the Schafalpenköpfe and the Mindelheim via ferrata .
Location and surroundings
The border between Germany and Austria runs over the summit of the Second Schafalpenkopf . Thus it is distributed over the federal states of Bavaria and Vorarlberg . On the Bavarian side it belongs to the administrative area of the district of Oberallgäu and Oberstdorf , on Austrian territory to the district of Bregenz and the municipality of Mittelberg .
To the northeast, the Second Schafalpenkopf is followed by the Third Schafalpenkopf (2320 m), from which it is separated by a gap at 2180 meters. It is the reference point for the 122 meter high notch of the Second Schafalpenkopf. The dominance of the Second Schafalpenkopf is 600 meters, so it extends to the Third Schafalpenkopf. The Rappenalptal is located in the south of the Second Schafalpenkopf . In the southwest, the Second Schafalpenkopf goes over to the First Schafalpenkopf (2272 m). In the northwest of the mountain is the Wildental , which leads into the Kleinwalsertal .

Alpinism
bases
The Fiderepasshütte and the Mindelheimer Hütte (2013 m) are the base points for tours on the Second Schafalpenkopf . In addition, access from Mittelberg through Wildental and from the mountain station of the Kanzelwandbahn is possible.
Routes
The Mindelheim via ferrata is the normal route for the Second Schafalpenkopf . This medium-difficulty via ferrata (C) crosses the mountain from northeast to southwest, from the third to the first Schafalpenkopf. Wire rope insurances and iron clamps help the mountaineer.
The routes from the time before the via ferrata was built hardly play a role today. The former normal route had difficulty I , in a more stringent, direct variant even III. It led through the south-western Kar Große Wanne to the summit. A route through the east face (level of difficulty V) was taken in 1920 by the climber Zitzelsberger and his companions.
