A great place to go if you want good food or drinks. The staff are always very friendly and accommodating. The building itself is also a feast for the eyes.

The Allgäu Alps offer a diverse mountain landscape with rolling hills, rugged cliffs, and striking peaks like the Nebelhorn, the Kanzelwand, and the Großer Widderstein. 🏞️ In spring and summer, the mountains are ablaze with lush greenery and vibrant alpine flowers; in autumn, they display warm gold and red hues; and in winter, they are blanketed in snow – a constantly captivating display of color. 🍃🍂❄️

Located at 1,279 meters, the Alpe Dinjörgen is a beautiful and peaceful spot for a snack. The homemade products taste wonderful! 👍

The Hühnermoos raised bog was formed after the last Ice Age. The melting glacier left behind a so-called dead-ice hole—a hollow in which a small lake initially formed, and where the melting glacial ice could no longer drain away. The peat in the lake formed from dying marsh grasses, which then gradually silted up.
