Holiday in a sports hotel in the Allgäu
Hotel in the Allgäu: The perfect accommodation for your active holiday in the Allgäu Alps!
Experience the full diversity of the Allgäu region on your vacation at the Explorer Hotels! Whether in Nesselwang or Oberstdorf—whether summer or winter—your active vacation in the Allgäu mountains is sure to be amazing!
Summer and winter holidays in the hotels in the Allgäu
Your summer in the southernmost region of Bavaria will be great, because this travel destination is a true all-rounder!
We love the Allgäu - that's why there are two Explorer Hotels! The Explorer Hotel Neuschwanstein is in Nesselwang in the Ostallgäu, right on the Alpspitze, and the Explorer Hotel Oberstdorf is in the Oberallgäu.
In Oberstdorf, a 400-peak view awaits you on the Nebelhorn, and in summer you can discover the impressive Allgäu mountains on over 300 km of marked hiking trails.
You have the choice of either going easy and relaxed in the valley or alpine and enjoying the views on the high peaks of the surrounding mountains in the two-country region of Oberstdorf Kleinwalsertal.
The southern Allgäu is also wonderful to explore by mountain bike or racing bike. As a certified Bed & Bike facility, the Explorer Hotel Oberstdorf is the ideal hotel for your bike holiday around Oberstdorf.
If you're looking for more than just the thrill of reaching the summit, take a dip in one of the many cold mountain lakes like Lake Freiberg in summer, take part in a canyoning tour, or let Bavaria be shown to you from above on a paragliding flight.
Oberstdorf is also a winter wonderland! The Oberstdorf / Kleinwalsertal ski area consists of seven mountains in two countries (Germany and Austria) and offers a total of 130 kilometers of slopes. Here, you can ski and snowboard to your heart's content.
Do you prefer perfectly groomed trails to the slopes? Perfect! Cross-country skiers will find numerous trails in and around Oberstdorf, ranging from easy to challenging; you can even ski on the Nordic World Ski Championships competition courses here.
If you prefer to discover winter off-piste, the numerous winter hiking trails and snowshoe tours are sure to be just the thing for you.
THE highlights in Oberstdorf:
Freibergsee
Lake Freiberg is located at 931 meters above sea level and is an absolute highlight in both summer and winter. It also offers a fantastic view of the famous Heini-Klopfer ski jump in Oberstdorf (which you should definitely visit).
World Ski Jumping Arena Oberstdorf
With its five ski jumping hills, it is not only known for hosting the opening event of the annual Four Hills Tournament, but also as a three-time venue for the Nordic World Ski Championships - most recently in February 2021.
Oberstdorf ski jumping hill
The Heini Klopfer ski jump, with a total height of 207 meters, is the largest ski jump in Germany and one of the largest ski flying facilities in the world. It regularly hosts Ski Flying World Cups and World Championships.
Paragliding Allgäu - Tandem flights Skyride
Do you know why you're so lucky if you're spending your vacation in Oberstdorf? Because one of the best flying areas in the Northern Alps is located right at the Nebelhorn in Oberstdorf!
Breitachklamm – Natural Wonder of the Year 2025
The Breitachklamm near Oberstdorf is the deepest rock gorge in Central Europe, accessible all year round and a must-see on the bucket list.
Grüntensee climbing forest
In the Tiefblick climbing forest at Grüntensee, 11 climbing courses of varying difficulty with a total of 97 elements, slackline courses and flying fox courses await you.
Starzlach Gorge
The Starzlachklamm Gorge in Burgberg in the Allgäu region is considered one of the top highlights of the region between Lake Alpsee and Grünten. The Starzlachklamm Gorge in the Allgäu is not only a natural wonder but also a starting point for great hikes and mountain bike tours.
Seealpsee
The Seealpsee near Oberstdorf in the Allgäu region is one of the most beautiful lakes in the Allgäu Mountains. It lies at almost 1,700 meters above the Oytal valley on the southeast slope of the Schattenberg mountain and offers a fantastic view of the Allgäu Alps, including 400 peaks.
CANYONING & RAFTING in the Allgäu
If you're looking for an action-packed summer experience, you've come to the right place! Discover the coolest canyoning and rafting tours with guides.
Holiday feeling all year round: Holiday at the Explorer Hotel Neuschwanstein
Further highlights in Nesselwang:
AlpspitzKICK
In two sections, you'll zoom down from 1,500 meters at speeds of up to 120 km/h back toward the valley. This makes the AlpspitzKICK at the Alpspitze the fastest zip line in Germany.
Neuschwanstein Castle
King Ludwig II of Bavaria (yes, the crazy fairytale king) built what is probably Germany's most famous castle in 1896 to create a retreat for himself.
Pleasure adventure trail at the Alpspitzbahn
The pleasure adventure trail starts at the mountain station of the Alpspitzbahn and is also ideal for families!
AlpspitzCOASTER
Tobogganing fun & action in summer and winter: on the Alpspitz Coaster in Nesselwang you can enjoy the beautiful view from the Alpspitze in the middle of nature on the toboggan run.
