Hinterstein

Hinterstein sits at the head of the Ostrachtal beside the Ostrach River in Bavaria’s Allgäu, where steep Alpine slopes enclose a small settlement in the municipality of Bad Hindelang. The village is surrounded by the Allgäu Alps, and the route beyond it continues into a high mountain valley rather than towards another town, giving Hinterstein a distinct end-of-valley character. It is a useful base for routes into the nearby Allgäu High Alps protected area. Alpine pasture farming remains part of local life, while Bad Hindelang’s Viehscheid marks the autumn return of cattle from summer grazing.
