Bolsterlang: Family holidays with mountain village character

Holidaymakers can enjoy pure village idyll in the Oberallgäu mountain village of Bolsterlang: the village has grown organically against the natural backdrop of the Alps on the quiet, sunny plateau above the Illertal valley. There is no hotel complex in Bolsterlang. Familiar, warm hospitality and classified private accommodation predominate.

Customs and traditions have retained their naturalness: Whether at stand concerts, traditional costume festivals or the mountain fair. Guests and locals celebrate together. An ideal environment for family holidays. Plenty of playful open space in nature, with animals on the farm and shared experiences for all generations.

Bolsterlang in summer means stimulating all the senses: in front of the omnipresent mountain backdrop and on lush dandelion meadows; with fragrant hay and in the spicy mountain air; in the silence of nature; with a piece of mountain cheese on the alpine pasture. Above all, the Hörner panoramic tour from summit to summit promises unforgettable experiences.

Village life meets modernity in the Gundelsberg district: this comprises just three properties - and is located in the centre of the Oberallgäu golf course. The mountains around Bolsterlang are also a favourite meeting place for paragliders and paragliders. A rather rare attraction is the archery practice course as well as the valley course in Bolsterlang and the mountain course in the Hörnerbahn area. There is plenty on offer for both beginners and experienced archers.

Bolsterlang is also an ideal holiday destination for families in winter with 15 kilometres of cross-country ski trails, a village lift with ski school area and direct access to the Hörnerbahn ski area. Together with the Ofterschwanger Horn, it comprises 38 kilometres of pistes of all levels of difficulty.

Hiking and cycling in a pristine mountain landscape; health tourism, healing climate and wellness; a wealth of family attractions; exclusive golf courses and winter holidays in a region with cosy family ski areas: The five Oberallgäu Hörner villages of Fischen, Ofterschwang, Obermaiselstein, Bolsterlang and Balderschwang have together succeeded in building a bridge between unspoilt nature and the preservation of tradition as well as a modern tourist destination.
