Allgäu summer experiences

Your time out between mountains and lakes

A summer’s day here in Eglofs often starts quite simply. Fresh mountain air flows through the open window, the view sweeps over the green hills of the West Allgäu and somewhere in the distance the cowbells are ringing. The first rays of sunshine touch the meadows and your legs are tingling. Time to get out and about. Whether you go hiking, swimming or simply enjoy nature – summer in the Allgäu has something for everyone. And the best thing is:

All these experiences start right here. In the middle of nature, right on our doorstep.

Pure refreshment

The lakes in the Allgäu

Anyone on a summer vacation is looking forward to cooling off. Fortunately, there are several bathing lakes, natural pools and hidden water spots around Eglofs – each one special in its own way.

Some are large and offer everything that families and active people need. Others are very quiet, almost like an insider tip. And they all belong to the Allgäu Lake District, a landscape where water is as much a part of the summer scenery as the meadows and mountains.

  • The Argenbühl mud baths are just a few minutes away from our hotel. Natural, quiet and with soft moor water – refreshing and soothing at the same time.
  • The large Alpsee lake invites you to swim, row, sunbathe or simply look around. The gentle waves, the view of the mountains and the long lakeside paths make it a favorite place for many guests.
  • The Waldsee in Lindenberg is considered one of the warmest moorland lakes in Germany. There is a lovely playground, a small café and plenty of space to linger – ideal for a relaxing afternoon with the family.
  • Lake Constance, just 35 minutes away, offers Mediterranean flair, lakeside promenades and panoramic views as far as Switzerland. If you like, take a day trip to Lindau or simply enjoy the light by the water.


Whether you take a few quiet laps in the morning or dip your feet in the water after a hike – the Allgäu lake district is perfect for warm days, quiet moments and pure refreshment. Some guests come back just because of the lakes. And we understand why.

Short trip

Hiking & Cycling

Whether on foot or by bike: for all those who like to be active, the experience starts right on the doorstep. The trails around Eglofs are well signposted and offer views, alpine pastures and quiet corners to take a deep breath. For more inspiration, you can find our own pages with tips and favorite routes.

Natural and lively

Summer with children

The Allgäu is a great place of discovery for families. No theme parks, no long queues – just real experiences in the great outdoors:

  • Playground just around the corner
  • Möggers forest adventure trail
  • Hündle summer toboggan run
  • Viehscheid with decorated cows and music

In the evening, the little ones are often tired and happy. And you can end the day with a glass of wine on our mountain view terrace.

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

Time for you

Relax with a view of the Allgäu Alps

After a day full of impressions, it’s good to simply come to rest. Our natural garden invites you to consciously experience nature – barefoot through the grass, a good book on the sky lounger or simply gazing into the distance.

Our newly designed Berg & Wiesen Plätzle is particularly popular: a quiet retreat with a sky lounger and an incredible view of the Allgäu mountain panorama.

Afterwards, you can end the day relaxing on the Bergblick terrace with a cool drink and the setting sun.

Just sit, breathe, look. Sometimes it’s precisely these moments that remain unforgettable.
