Choosing the right mountaineering trail when you have children with you can be a challenge. If your child is too little to walk, you’ll need a trail where carrying them won’t be a problem. If the child is able to walk on their own, the trail must be sufficiently exciting while not being too challenging. And which hiking trail is the right one for teens? The Ammergau Alps have an abundance of them.
