Snowshoeing in the Allgäu

Quiet paths, wide views

When the snow is high and the paths are untouched, the time for snowshoeing begins. It doesn’t take much – just warm clothing, a bit of fitness and a desire for nature. And off you go, step by step through the white winter landscape.

You can set off on your first short tours directly from the hotel, for example across the fields around Eglofs or through the forest on the outskirts of the village. If you want to go higher, you will find beautiful routes on the Hündle or Hochgrat with views of the snow-covered Allgäu Alps.

Particularly beautiful: an ascent in the clear winter sun, when the snow glistens and there is only the blue sky above you.
An experience that slows you down – and stays in your head for a long time.

Cordiality. Down to earth. Passion. Regional. Familiar. Cozy. Nature.  

Winter vacation with family

Tobogganing, playing, being outdoors

Tobogganing is an experience for everyone.
The toboggan slope is just behind the village – not big, but perfect for romping, playing and having fun.

Even without a ski lift, there are plenty of opportunities for a winter day with the whole family here in the West Allgäu:
Build a snowman, have a snowball fight, go on a little forest adventure – and then enjoy a warm drink in our parlor.

Because everything is close by, nothing is an effort. And that’s what makes a vacation with children here so enjoyable.

Quiet winter days in Eglofs

Time for two

Our house is just right for those who like to experience winter consciously.
A walk through the snow-covered landscape, a warm meal with a mountain view, an afternoon without appointments.

Or lie on the sky lounger in the natural garden, enjoy the cold air and let your gaze wander over the white peaks.
If you like, take a blanket with you and just stay a while.

Some say this is their favorite moment of their winter vacation. We understand why.
