December 15, 2024,🇦🇹 Christkindlmarkt am Vilsalpsee 👼❄️ 15.12.2024

Today we went to the Tannheimer Valley to the Christmas market at Vilsalpsee. Thanks @AllgäuWolperdinger and @Allgäu-Wiesele for the reminder 😉.

The small but lovely Christmas market is definitely worth a visit. The stalls sell culinary delicacies and beautiful goods. There is also quiet (!) music in the background.
