    Short, easy trail running route especially suitable for beginners in the Bärgunt valley.

    From the Baad bus stop, a wide trail gently ascends along the Bärgunt stream up to the managed Bärgunt hut. From there, on the other side of the stream at the foot of the Widderstein, the route continues with a moderate downhill, with occasional short ascents, to the Widderstein alpine pasture. Here, the approximately 5 km long, technically easy route branches off back onto the already known path and leads back to Baad.

    Need a short break? Sabine Ott welcomes you in the Schwarzwasserhütte with refreshments.

    >>> Walserbus timetable

    Approach:

    Most routes from Germany converge in Ulm and continue on the A7. At the Allgäu motorway junction, take the A980 section to the Waltenhofen exit and then the four-lane B19 via Sonthofen and Oberstdorf into Kleinwalsertal. From Austria (Vorarlberg) and Switzerland, you can reach Kleinwalsertal via the Bregenzerwald (Hittisau) – Riedberg Pass – Fischen – Oberstdorf. Coming from Tirol, the fastest route is via the A7 to Kempten and then the B19 towards Oberstdorf. You do not need a motorway vignette for the drive into the valley.
