A summer-dream of Allgäu
The Allgäu summer provides endless possibilities of leisure opportunities. Not only the dreamy beautiful midsummer of July and August but it is also very attractive in the springtime. Walking among the flower-covered meadows and admiring the trees with their fresh new green, is one of the most popular activities.
September and October are the months of Indian Summer and most of the time the sight towards the mountains is clear and shiny. We are proud in our community to present such an environment with an extensive forest and colourful autumn leaves.
Walking and hiking
An Eldorado for walkers. Halblech is located close to Neuschwanstein Castle, the famous rococo Wieskirche and also to the historic city of Füssen: an ideal starting point for hiking holidays.
The hiking paradise of Hablech – the Allgäu is situated in a broad valley and offers an unimpeded spectacular view to the Ammer mountains and Allgäu Alps. This possibility occurs very seldom: so close to the mountains with its beautiful views - to choose between mountain hiking and flat walking trails. The intensive network of trails wind through colourful meadows, picturesque lakes and many places of interest.
