Stiefenhofen – the herb village for a sane holiday

Stiefenhofen is one of the most beautiful municipalities in the most southern corner of Germany, in the region Allgäu. Surrounded by the heights of the „Nagelfluhkette“ and guarded by the majestic mountain Hochgrat“ the village spreads out in a wide, picturesque valley with meadows and forests.

From lonely small restaurants and farms up to small villages there is a variety of opportunities for overnight stays in holiday flats and homes, boarding houses and small family-run hotels which are available for the visitor - according to his choice. Stiefenhofen is famous as the “herb village“ of Bavaria due to the fact that curing and spicing herbs are grown up in gardens and are used within the village.

 

The Artemisia is especially well worth the visit: This is a herb garden with a size of .5 ha. Wellness treatments on the base of the Kneipp cure, courses and guided tours to wild and untoouched herbs, night walks or also visits to diaries. Families feel especially well in the untouched nature of Stiefenhofen.

The direct proximity to Lake Constance and the castles Neuschwanstein and Hohenwangen are providing many opportunities for day tours for the visitors. The holiday within the mountains between colourful meadows of the alps and forests can be followed up by a winter holiday with numerous possibilities for Winter sports activities, like Winter hiking, cross-country skiing on very good prepared slopes and with descents to the valley.

Stiefenhofen is an especially beautiful holiday village for all senses, the health and many activities all the year round.
