Brief description

Exciting route along the Breitach.

Approach

Most routes from Germany converge in Ulm and continue on the A7. At the Allgäu motorway junction, take the A980 to the Waltenhofen exit and then the four-lane B19 via Sonthofen and Oberstdorf into the 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 on the B19 towards Oberstdorf. No motorway vignette is required for the trip into the valley.

Public transport

Just leave your car standing!

There is the option to use the Walserbus for the journey. Bus line 1 serves the town of Riezlern. For this route, get off at the "Gemeindeamt" stop.
