Premium winter hiking trail Kapfwald round

The Kapfwald round leads over six kilometers on paved paths and groomed routes through the picturesque landscape around Oberstaufen. Nearly one third of the path runs through the wintry Kapfwald. The premium route perfectly highlights the numerous farmsteads and homesteads outside the Schroth healing spa. The elevation difference of 170 meters is moderate – the route is well suited as a leisurely two- to three-hour walk for relaxed strolling in an intact winter world. Yellow signposts guide you along the entire route. Due to the parking lot being moved to the tennis hall, the round already starts at the road junction up to Sinswang and initially runs a few meters along the road.

Route description: At the Argenstraße junction below Sinswang, a groomed route first runs along the road towards Genhofen and in a large arc over open fields back to the edge of the village of Sinswang. From there, it goes once again away from the summer path up to the district of Saneberg. We follow the winter trail uphill into the romantic Kapfwald and reach the so-called Windeck. From here, there is a wonderful panoramic view towards Steibis and the snow-covered peaks of the Nagelfluh range. A few meters further, we have a nice view of the village of Oberstaufen, then it goes again into the forest. Shortly thereafter, a groomed route passes a small brook and over open areas back towards Sinswang. With a beautiful view down into the Moos as well as towards Buflings and Zell, the last meters descend to Sinswang (refreshments available) and from there downhill on the sidewalk to the starting point at the Argenstraße/Sinswang junction.
