Ski area Ski Oberstdorf Kleinwalsertal

The Austrian Kleinwalsertal, together with the resort Oberstdorf (the most southern municipal in German) forms a wonderful ski region with a magnificent 119 km of piste, accessible via 45 lifts via the lift pass "Ski Oberstdorf Kleinwalsertal". The perfectly prepared pistes are especially suited for families and beginners, but also more experienced riders can enjoy some challenging runs.

A special attraction is the two-country ski area Fellhorn/Kanzelwand, which is easily reached from Riezlern via the Kanzelwand lift. A total of 34 km of piste stretch from the Austrian Kleinwalsertal right over to the German Skiarena Fellhorn. At the Kesslerlift, next to the valley station of the Kanzelwand lift, freestylers will find the "Crystal Ground Snowpark" with a chill-out sun deck and floodlight arena for night sessions. At all main lift stations of the Fellhorn and Kanzelwand lifts, as well as in all "Das-Höchste" restaurants, you have fee Wi-Fi access. (via hotspots).

At the Nebelhorn, you can take the highest-located gondola of the Allgäu up to 2,224 m altitude. When the weather is good, you can enjoy an impressive view of the 400 surrounding mountain peak between the German Zugspitze and Swiss Säntis. Afterwards, you can make your way along Germany's longest valley run from the tip of the Nebelhorn right down to Oberstdorf. Family-friendly and also ideal for warming up is the ski area at the Söllereck, with mostly easy to intermediate pistes. The Walmendinger Horn on the other hand, offers lovely, diverse descents for all skiing levels.

Après ski Riezlern

Although Riezlern is rather quaint and peaceful, there's still a bit of après ski to enjoy. Just after finishing your last run on the piste, head over to the Cantina Vertical at the valley station of the Kanzelwand lift and sip on a coffee or other pick-me-ups. Snacks and beverages can be enjoyed on the sun terrace of the snow bar at the toboggan lift. You'll also find one of the eight toboggan runs in the Walsertal. In the toboggan lift, you can even hang up the special sleds so that riders can comfortably make their way to the 500 m long run.

To round off the evening and enjoy the perfect meal, you'll find numerous taverns available to choose from. In Steffi’s Tavern, for example, international cuisine is served in a rustic atmosphere, sometimes with live music to boot! If it's entertainment you're looking for, then the Casino Kleinwalsertal is the place to be, with black jack, roulette and other games that test your luck. Another option is the "Cuisino," where you can test your luck instead with your palette as you ponder the diverse menu. In the same building, you'll find the "Tanzbar" disco, where DJs provide you with diverse programmes to keep you going.

Those who prefer to spend more time in nature can choose to go for a hike or ski tour along the Walser mountains, or take a walk along the valley of the Hirschegg or Mittelberg mountains. A well-known and popular field trip destination all year long is the Breitachklamm near Obertsdorf. Through the approx. 2.5 km long gorge, a natural pathway runs along iced over cliffs, ice caves and frozen waterfalls. A truly unique experience for the entire family!
