A Weekend Trip To Breitachklamm, Oberstdorf

July's summer is the most beautiful time to visit Germany. Adventure sports like Trekking, Para sailing are popular sports during this time.


This weekend, we, a group of 14 decided to trek the Bavarian Alps and chose Oberstdorf near Austria.
In Oberstdorf, there is a narrow gorge formed by melting water from the glaciers. Its popularly known as Breitachklamm.

The gorge is beautiful and created by the stream (mountain river Breitach) over thousands of years. Its a low sunlight area and gives a feel of air conditioning. For thirsty trekkers, this is one heavenly place.



According to history, Breitachklamm was formed about 10,000 years ago. Itseems the glaciers eroded the softer rock and harder ones remained.


There is also a tunnel that takes you to the other side of the trekking track. The river water is emerald green and freezing.


It took us about 5 hours to trek and we reached the Austrian border by evening.  For photographers, this is one place to visit.
