Kanzelwand (2,058 m) is quite popular summit in Allgäu alps located at the border between Germany and Austria. This route is fairly easy for summer, however, in winter you need a good fitness to do this tour. Also if the snow is deep, you need snowshoes/ski.

Ascent: Follow the ski piste from Fellhorn parking lot towards Gundsattel. From the saddle continue further up towards the last cable car stop of Zweilanderbahn. Till this point the route is straight forward and there is no technical difficulty. From there the last part requires traverse on steep scree/snow. Absolute sure-fottedness and no fear of heights is required. There are also some ferrata routes on the way, don't get confused there and continue towards the ridge. There you see a signpost turn left there and the summit is 5 min from there. 

Descent: same as ascent.
