Route description

The starting point is the Ibergeregg pass at 1,403 metres. The path first leads through the Schijenloch and drops gently to 1,373 metres.

From kilometre 1.1 the only climb worth mentioning follows with 102 metres of ascent. At kilometre 2.2 the highest point of the loop is reached at 1,515 metres, after which the path closes back at the pass.

The steepest passage lies at kilometre 1.4 and reaches around 15 per cent. Technically the hike makes no particular demands. The Restaurant Passhöhe Ibergeregg stands at the start and finish. Because of the altitude the loop can be walked from June to October.
