The typical landscape of the Allgäu, which impresses with its flowery meadows and forests in summer, transforms into a dream of snow and ice in winter. If you have ever felt the crunching snow under your soles and marvelled at the picturesque icy landscape of the frozen ponds and lakes, you should not miss the winter hikes in the Allgäu.
