Burgberg im Allgäu lies along the Starzlach at the foot of Grünten, where the northern Alps meet the rolling foothills of the Oberallgäu. Rising to 1,738 metres, Grünten is one of the region’s most recognisable summits, while the nearby Starzlachklamm gorge follows the course of the mountain stream. Iron ore was once mined on Grünten’s slopes, and the Erzgruben Erlebniswelt recalls this industrial past through former mine workings. South of Sonthofen, Burgberg belongs to a landscape shaped by Alpine farming, mountain routes and closely linked valley communities.
