Holidays in Allgäu/Bavarian- Swabia

Sun-drenched Allgäu is a colourful paradise of pure relaxation with gently rolling Alpine foothills, crystal clear lakes, lush green meadows and mountain peaks: recuperation for both body and soul – a land of phenomenal beauty. Little wonder that King Ludwig II chose the Allgäu in which to realise his dream of a Utopian world and build his fairytale castle of Neuschwanstein.

But the Allgäu is not just for those wanting to rest and relax; it is also an absolute paradise for anyone looking for a more active type of holiday. Whether you enjoy hiking, cycling, water sports or skiing, you will never be at a loss for something to do in the Allgäu. Cultural highlights include the Benedictine abbey in Ottobeuren – an unparalleled work of art and one of the most outstanding baroque buildings in the whole of Europe.

The Roman remains in Kempten and Augsburg, the intact mediaeval town walls of Nördlingen and a range of magnificent town halls in erstwhile imperial free cities bear witness to the Bavarian Swabia’s rich cultural past. Visitors to the area love the region’s culinary delicacies – particularly the cheese specialities – that make a perfect holiday complete.
