The route goes through the following peaks offering beautiful views of Allgäu:

  • Kanzelwand (2,059 m)
  • Walser Hammerspitze (2,170 m)
  • Hochgehrenspitze (2,251 m)
  • Oberstdorfer Hammerspitze (2,259 m)
  • Höchster Schafalpenkopf (2,321 m)
  • Mittlerer Schafalpenkopf (2,301 m)
  • Südlicher Schafalpenkopf (2,273 m)
  • Kemptnerkopf (2,193 m)

Probably the best idea is to split the tour in 3 days with overnight stay in Fiderepasshütte and Mindelheimer Hütte. 

Kanzelwand ascent requires a C/D klettersteig, I found the rocks a bit slippery and smooth. 

Oberstdorfer Hammerspitze ascent is T5(II) in pathless terrain. 

Mindelheimer Ferrata is B/C.
