Our "Crystal Family" fun parks in the Fellhorn/Kanzelwand area and the mini park at Söllereck will delight freeskiers and snowboarders alike, and are suitable for all abilities and ages.
The weather is giving the Allgäu and Kleinwalsertal regions a dream start to the ski season – right at the beginning, there's a powder alert with 40-60 cm of fresh snow. Crisp, cold weather, sunshine, and further snowfall are forecast for the next few days.
This is reason enough for the Oberstdorf ∙ Kleinwalsertal mountain lifts to kick off the winter season with a pre-opening at the Fellhorn.
