I grew up not far from the Allgäu myself and have spent a lot of time there since I was a child. In my opinion, the best time to visit is April-May and September-October. Everyone should have seen Neuschwanstein Castle. A guided tour is worthwhile if you are interested in the history of King Ludwig, but it is not absolutely necessary. The view from the outside is also absolutely stunning. The best cakes and tarts in Schwangau can be found at the Kurcafé in Schwangau. For adrenalin junkies, the Alpspitz zip line in Nesselwang is well worth a visit. Another insider tip is the Hopfensee lake. It offers a fantastic panorama and is not as crowded as other places in the Allgäu. We travelled by car, as the routes are accessible by public transport, but are sometimes very inconvenient. To see as much as possible, you should be travelling by car. For me, the Allgäu is a great excursion tip, especially for families. There are many family-run hotels in the area and the warmth of the hosts is overwhelming. There are always good voucher offers for the low season.

You should definitely visit Neuschwanstein Castle. The Wieskirche church is also very impressive. Schwangau is a very beautiful small town and perfect for walks. Lake Hopfensee is also a lovely place to relax.
Hidden gems
The Alpspitz zip wire in Nesselwang and the Kurcafé in Schwangau.

We really enjoyed our time in the Allgäu. The weekend trip was fantastic as we had lots of snow. The Allgäu is known as a sunshine hole, you are never disappointed. The air is clear, the prices (we had an apartment) are very fair. Kempten is a great town to eat in, you can find everything there. You definitely need a car, otherwise it's very difficult to get around. We would go there again any time!

Overall, the Allgäu holiday region is highly recommended, as it offers a wide range of options in both summer and winter. In terms of price, it is also more attractive than Austria. We have been travelling there every year for about ten years. So it's also ideal for small children. One downside is that we didn't have snow this year in winter, which has always been a problem for skiing in Bolsterlang.

Hidden gems
We personally found the view from the Nebelhorn breathtaking. In good weather, you can look out over the mountains.
Destination recommendation
The Allgäu is definitely recommended, as you don't necessarily have to make the long journey to Austria.

We were in Immenstadt last summer, as we have been for the last few years. We arrived by car at the end of July and parked in one of the many car parks in the town centre. At the beginning of August, these are often reserved for the Buddhist course that takes place on the hillside above the large Alpsee lake. The holiday started with a beautiful firework display. We also visited the Buddhist centre, which is the European centre of the Diamond Way. The participants of the course camp up there, there are lectures, meditation and the highlight was the inauguration of the stupa. This is a monument to peace, happiness and prosperity. Even high dignitaries of this Buddhist lineage were present. We also went on many hikes. The absolute highlight was the Starzachklamm gorge. For this excursion, we travelled to Bad Oberdorf and did a circular walk as a day trip. You should be sure-footed and wear sturdy shoes. However, the gorge is also very well secured with handrails. You can also try canyoning here.

We are always in Immenstadt and love it there. For example, every last Saturday in July there is the traditional Bühler Seenachtsfest with fireworks. There is also the Europazenteum, a Buddhist centre, which celebrated a large stupa inauguration last year.
Hidden gems
There is the large Alpsee lake for swimming and sailing. And of course beautiful hiking trails. Our insider tip is the Starzachklamm gorge.
Destination recommendation
It's simply still an intact world with healthy nature.
Pros
Mountains, lakes, gorge
Hiking, swimming, sailing, canyoning

You can experience a lot in the Allgäu. The landscape is like something out of a picture book. You feel like you're in a dream. There is so much to discover in the Allgäu for couples, for loners, but also for families and nature lovers. Beautiful cows stand on the green, lush pastures. There are many beautiful places in the Allgäu, great sights, beautiful towns and wonderful attractions and holiday and leisure parks. Recreation and wellness are not neglected in the Allgäu either. An absolute recommendation for everyone, big and small, old and young.

Get active with wintersports in the Allgäu Alps
During the winter, the hills of the Allgäu Alps fill with winter sports enthusiasts who have come to enjoy the snow and the scenery. Allgäu is the largest wintersports region in Germany, and there are ample opportunities to get involved in the action – whether you're a first time skier or a keen tobogganist, there is something for all the family do. Don't miss the fabulous chance to hit the slopes here and after a day of cruising through the snow, retire to your apartment in Allgäu and enjoy a warming hot chocolate. Make the most of your stay here and visit some of the famous German Christmas markets in nearby Munich and Nuremberg during the holiday season. These wonderful markets offer a wide range of mulled wine, tasty treats and unique ornaments so make sure you check out all the stalls available.
Discover the Alpine countryside in Summer
Allgäu isn't just a winter holilday destination though - you'll find plenty of well-marked hiking trails to explore more of the wonderful countryside here. Whether you're after a peaceful stroll along the rivers and lakes in the region or you'd prefer to get stuck in with a full on trek up Mount Großen Krottenkop, which has a peak of over two and a half kilometres. Along the trail you'll get picturesque views of the area, with a full landscape view of the beautiful meadows and the rocky surfaces of the Alps. Cool off after a long day of hiking or biking with a swim in one of the cool, clean mountain lakes found all around Allgäu. If you're thinking of making a day trip slightly further afield during your stay in a villa in Allgäu, why not head west and visit the beautiful Lake Constance?
