There is hardly any other sport that combines healthy exercise, fresh air, being in nature and slowing down at the same time. Winter hiking on perfectly groomed trails, surrounded by fascinating mountains and impressive views has it all - you should definitely try it!
Even though the surroundings are the same when skiing, there is a difference in pace when winter hiking. You have a lot more time to take in all the different impressions that surround you. The mountain cable car takes you comfortably uphill and afterwards you can enjoy the majestic snowy mountain landscape surrounding you.
About snow dunes, sunken moores and snowy mountain lakes
Get to know the fascinating snow dunes at the ´Gottesacker´ plateau at the Ifen while winter hiking, explore the snow-covered ´Hühnermoos´ moor at the Söllereck or enjoy the view on the snowbound ´Seealpsee´ lake at the Nebelhorn. And those are just a few of many more highlights which you can explore while winter hiking in the Oberstdorf/Kleinwalsertal area. There are more than 33km of paved winter hiking trails at the Fellhorn, Nebelhorn, Söllereck, Ifen and Heuberg waiting for you.
And don´t forget to stop for a bite to eat!
Hiking makes you hungry - and winter hiking probably even a bit more! Exercise in the crystal clear mountain air does not only mean relaxation - it also burnes a lot of calories! And which place would be better to fill your empty stomach than in one of our many mountain restaurants? And our restaurateurs are already looking forward to provide the perfect meal for your desires.
But you should not only try the food! There are also warming cappuccinos, delicious hot chocolates and tasty mulled wines waiting for you because nothing is better than enjoying a hot beverage after an impressive walk in the snow.
