That first glance out of the window in the morning. Everything covered in white. The mountains suddenly look different. Quieter, clearer and even more impressive. Now begins the season for ski days, long walks through the snow and warming sauna infusions. Slip into the warm water of the whirlpool and take in the snow-covered peaks glowing in the evening light. Winter at Bergkristall. It simply feels right.
Strap on your snowshoes and set off. Through fresh powder snow, across forests and open slopes. Around 60 kilometres of cleared winter hiking trails await you. Explore the surroundings together with our hiking coaches or on your own. Right from Bergkristall, the trail leads up to the Kapf. One of our most beautiful circular routes in winter. At the top, you look out over the Nagelfluh range. And feel that warm Allgäu feeling in your heart.
Oh yes - the slopes are freshly groomed. Still untouched. The air is crisp. Your ski boots click in. And off you go. Around Oberstaufen, several ski areas await in the Allgäu mountains. Whether you prefer it sporty or relaxed. There’s something for everyone. With the Oberstaufen PLUS guest card, your ski pass is free and both uphill and downhill rides are included. On request, we’re happy to organise private or group ski lessons.
It’s something you should try. And if you’re not already a fan, you probably will be. Because you set the pace. Slow or fast, just as you like. More than 100 kilometres of perfectly groomed trails lead through nature around Oberstaufen. Skating or classic style, both are possible. The Kalzhofen trail is even illuminated at night. For the best snow conditions, head to the Hädrich high-altitude trail. And for experienced cross-country skiers, the 50 km “Super Trail” from Alpsee to Waldsee is a true highlight.
Staying in balance is an art and one you can learn. In the fitness studio, you train strength, endurance and mobility. In our spacious yoga studio, we take it one step further. Yoga and meditation classes. Breathing. Stretching. Coming back to yourself. Both strengthen body and mind. And feel especially good before or after a day out in the snow.
