The Steinberg hike (around 800 meters of altitude) is a hidden gem in the Allgäuer Alps, offering a challenging yet rewarding adventure for those looking to escape the crowds. The trail starts close to Gunzesried and takes you to the summit. It's not as well-known as other nearby peaks, so you'll likely have the stunning views all to yourself. Just be prepared for some tricky terrain and make sure to pack plenty of snacks for a well-deserved break on your way back down.
