The route starts from the Landhotel Zerlaut, a hotel in the middle of the Alpine meadows. Easy to reach from the Netherlands in 1 day. Via a short distance through the area and a piece of motorway you arrive in Lindau on Lake Constance. It is an island on the eastern shore of Lake Constance and is about 70 hectares in size and is the second largest island in the 'Swabian Sea'. With its winding streets and medieval buildings, the old town has a very special, according to some even Mediterranean flair. At the harbor you will be greeted as a visitor by the 'Bavarian Lion' and the southernmost lighthouse in Germany. It is said that a walk through Lindau is just what you need to get in the right mood for the journey down the German Alpenstrasse. A coffee stop has therefore been planned to be able to take a walk on the island afterwards. Through the historic city center you come to the west side where there are beautiful viewpoints on the water. The route continues over the Chelles-Allee bridge and after fifteen minutes you get a taste of all the beauty that awaits you. In the Alpenstrasse the B308 there are 7 steep curves that take you 400 meters higher with a maximum 9% gradient. You will now drive into the Allgäu region, an area of waterfalls and scenic panoramic views. Just before you arrive in Scheidegg you will find the Scheidegger waterfalls on the right. There are 3 of them and the water of the Rickenbach falls from the 2 highest of 22 and 18 meters high, they are close together and can be admired from different vantage points. You continue the route and arrive in the village of Scheidegg. It is one of the sunniest places in Germany and is located on a sun terrace, at an altitude of 600 to 1,000 meters. The panoramic view from this village of the mountains of Bavaria, Vorarlberg and Switzerland with their impressive peaks is fantastic.

If you like hats, the hat museum in Lindenberg im Allgäu is also a place to visit. The first hat factory was established during the Biedermeier period (1814-1840). By 1890 there were 34 straw hat manufacturers who together made about 8 million straw hats annually. It is therefore not surprising that Lindenberg was nicknamed 'Little Paris' in the early 1920s as the heart of the German straw hat industry. The hat museum gives a nice insight into the centuries-old tradition of hat making in the city. The route continues on the B308 where you have a fantastic view over the entire national Nagefluhkette park in good weather. On the ridge between Weiler and Simmerberg you can see not only the Allgäu and the Vorarl mountains in clear weather, but even the Swiss Santis massif. The Oberjoch pass road also starts at the village of Oberreute, this road takes you after an hour of steering in the small village of Bühl am Alpsee where there is the possibility to have lunch at the Großer Alpsee, the largest natural lake in the Allgäu. From Gasthof Alpsee it is worthwhile to walk through the small harbor towards the Alpsee with its long jetty on which you can walk tens of meters into the Alpsee. After this stop the route continues through the Oberallgäu and you drive via Immenstadt, Sonthofen to Bad Hindelang. Bad Hindelang is not only a modern ski resort (Oberjoch), but also a spa. Anyone suffering from allergies can breathe freely here with healthy air and untouched nature and enjoy a carefree holiday. Moreover, since 2011, more than 110 companies in Bad Hindelang have been recognized as 'allergy-friendly'. In 2019, the Bavarian 'Heilbäder-Verband' awarded Bad Hindelang the TÜV seal of 'health resort for allergy sufferers'. After Bad Hindelang, the Oberjoch pass road starts and is one of the most famous recreational routes in Bavaria. It is Germany's most winding road through the Alps. This part consists of 106 turns. The road is so well integrated into the farm landscape that it has become an inseparable part of it, just like the neighboring villages and mountains, really fantastic to drive. Tip: Do not forget to enjoy the beautiful view which is possible at one of the many parking spaces with fantastic views. Finally you arrive in Wertach at the Grüntensee, a 2.5 km long and 11.2 m deep reservoir with a circumference of 8.2 km. The reservoir was completed in 1962 and is used for flood protection and electricity generation. Pfronten, the next village on your route after Nesselwang, is dedicated to the healing power of hay. This comes exclusively from ungrazed and unfertilized mountain pastures that lie at an altitude of more than 900 meters. The inexhaustible healing power of the hay from the mountain pastures with seventy different types of herbs, grasses and medicinal plants is used in all kinds of ways.
