Balderschwang

Balderschwang stretches along the Bolgenach valley in the Bavarian Allgäu, where a high, snow-prone basin has shaped scattered settlement and a strong reliance on alpine farming. At 1,044 metres, it is Germany’s highest municipality, close to the Austrian border and enclosed by slopes of the Allgäu Alps. The Riedberger Horn rises above the valley, while the Riedberg Pass road provides the community’s principal link to the rest of the Oberallgäu. Summer pastures and seasonal cattle grazing remain part of the local rhythm alongside winter sports. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Balderschwang and the Allgäu Alps.
