Winter hiking and cross-country skiing right on the doorstep of the Hotel Oberstdorf in the Allgäu region

It doesn't always have to be the ski slope.

The snowy landscape of the Allgäu region offers countless opportunities for your perfect winter holiday at the Hotel Oberstdorf: skiing, tobogganing, winter hiking and cross-country skiing.

Looking forward to winter vacation in Oberstdorf

The snow crunches underfoot with every step, fresh mountain air caresses our cold noses, and thick flakes of snow fall silently to the ground... Winter beckons us all outdoors to romp and admire it! But it doesn't always have to be the ski slopes... because our snow-covered mountain world in Oberstdorf can also be explored in completely different, impressive ways.

Winter hiking in the beautiful Allgäu region!

Winterurlaub im Allgäu bedeutet Spaß, Action und ganz viel Abwechslung. Mit den Wintersportaktivitäten lässt sich der Urlaub ganz individuell gestalten.

Discover the untouched landscape amidst the mountains. A snowshoe tour in the Allgäu region is the perfect way to do this.

Out with the winter boots - let's go!

Whether deep in the valley or high up in the mountains – where will your next adventure take you? In winter, the Allgäu region reveals a completely different side: everything is quieter, more dreamy, and sparkles peacefully. Grab your winter boots and discover the most beautiful spots in the Allgäu – you'll be amazed!

Unser Tipp: zum schönen Freibergsee

Die Tour beginnt am westlichen Ortsrand von Oberstdorf. Hier folgen Sie dem aussichtsreichen Weg über die Schlechtenbrücke zur Waldesruhe. Weiter geht es über den Bergkristall- und Edmund-Probst-Weg hinauf zum Freibergsee. Im Kessel oberhalb des glitzernden Sees angekommen, führt ein Rundweg einmal drumherum. Auf dem Rückweg kommen Sie über einen dichten Fichtenwald zum unteren Renksteg bis hin zum südlichen Ortsrand von Oberstdorf, wo die Winterwanderung auch wieder endet und wir mit einer dampfenden Tasse heißer Schokolade oder Glühwein bereits auf Sie warten :)

Are you more of a cross-country skier among winter sports enthusiasts?

This is perfect! With 70 km of free cross-country ski trails, variety is guaranteed. Follow in the footsteps of Nordic ski world champions or find your own! Easy, intermediate, and challenging trails wind their way through the stunning landscape of the Allgäu region.

A winter holiday in the Allgäu region offers a wide variety of activities. Numerous cross-country ski trails and snow-covered mountains ensure the perfect mountain holiday.

Unser Tipp: Nachtloipe im Nordic Zentrum Oberstdorf

Der durch Flutlicht beleuchtete, etwa 1km lange Rundkurs befindet sich im Bereich des Nordic Zentrum Oberstdorf im Allgäu. Die Loipe führt über ein flaches Gelände und ist somit besonders für Anfänger oder als gemütliche Abendrunde bestens geeignet.

Die Nachtloipe im Nordic Zentrum Oberstdorf ist ab Weihnachten (je nach Schneelage) immer dienstags und mittwochs ab 16:30 Uhr bis 19 Uhr beleuchtet.

Even more variety? Absolutely! ❄️

Too grown-up for sledding? Never! It's never too late for a fast-paced descent.

Tobogganing

Let your inner kid relive the fun! Right next to the Hotel Oberstdorf, there's a small hill where children can have a blast with our rental sleds. For those who prefer higher, longer, and more expansive runs, one of the toboggan runs, for example at the Nebelhorn or the Hornalpe, is the perfect choice.

Rain or shine, fun is the name of the game here. Enjoy public skating three times a day for two hours at the Oberstdorf Ice Sports Centre, or play a fun game of ice skating with friends.

The breathtaking mountain panorama on the Nebelhorn offers wide views and a promising panorama of the mountains, especially on beautiful days.

On a sunny winter day in Oberstdorf, there's nothing better than gliding down the Allgäu slopes on skis or a snowboard and feeling the snow under your boards.

But I'd rather hit the slopes...
