    The Höfle-Alpe in summer
    Photo: Höfle-Alpe
Höfle-Alpe is situated at the hillside of Grünten; the mountain is popular in the region as "Guard of the Allgäu". The alp is an ideal starting point for a mountain tour up to the distinctive peak. 
During the summer on the alp the inn keepers live here together with about 20 dairy cows on a height of 1200 m. And not only the cattle is cared about, but as well the guests feasted lovingly. The alp is popular beyond Allgäu for its everyday fresh cake from the pastry chef Vreni. Besides you get delicious snacks from local products. As a member of the association Allgäuer Alpgenuss e.V. the alp is committed to use local foods.

Höfle-Alpe is always a trip worth, even if the weather is wet. On a toll road one can drive directly to the hut – for example when there is "Allgäu cheese evening", an event which takes place in summer time once each month. Self-caterer can organize themselfes at the cozy apartment at Höfle-Alpe.

Opening times

Höfle-Alpe is open aorund the whole year. Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays are closed.
