So much to experience
Worth a trip
Experience the Hofgut
Right outside the hotel door you can go hiking, Nordic walking, jogging, cycling, golfing or in winter enjoy cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. Or just a stone’s throw away there is Lake Constance and the “four-country region” with Vorarlberg, Switzerland and Liechtenstein with its mountains big and small. We wish you a lot of fun as you go out and discover what the region has to offer.
Beautiful in every season

Fit & Healthy
Exclusive
Wellness area
The new wellness area on the roof of the new hotel extension is something very special. Steam bath and saunas, experience showers and relaxation rooms invite you to relax.
Cool and shady
Wildly romantic Argen riverbank
Directly in front of the door, the Argen flows by on its way into Lake Constance. Crossing the footbridge you can get to the hiking trails up to Ratzenried or along the river towards Kißlegg or Wangen.
Let off steam and have fun
Adventure playground
“Turra”
The children love it: conquer the castle, search for treasure chests, play castle lord and robber chief – while the parents enjoy themselves in the beer garden.
Brushes and paints
Art from the
Farny Villa
You’ll find the landscape paintings of the artist Andreas Scholz all over the estate buildings. Why don’t you take a look at the Farny Villa? This is where he has his studio. Make an appointment for a visit at reception.
Bees and honey
Breakfast honey from the estate’s own beekeeper
Among the animal inhabitants of the Hofgut are several bee colonies. Beekeeper Christoph Will visits “his ladies” at regular intervals and provides us with delicious Hofgut honey for breakfast. Looking for a souvenir for those at home? Our Hofgut honey is available at the reception in beautifully packaged jars. Ask us about it.

Summer activities
Spring and summer at the Hofgut mean blooming meadows, a peacefully babbling river Argen and fresh, scented air that invites you to exercise outdoors.

Winter activities
Winter also has a lot to offer. When the bushes and trees wear white caps and ice floats on the Argen, we are drawn to the bone-chilling fresh air. If you keep moving, you won’t freeze and you’ll work up an appetite for our delicious winter dishes with wild game and mushrooms. In the surrounding villages, the Christmas markets attract visitors.
Tracks in the snow
Skiing and
cross-country skiing
Depending on the snow conditions, you can start your cross-country skiing trip right next door in Wangen im Allgäu or in Argenbühl. One special feature is the floodlit trail in Niederwangen. Otherwise, it is not far to the ski resorts in the Allgäu mountains, for example near Oberstaufen and Missen, or then on to Vorarlberg or Switzerland. Lots of slopes to choose from, for beginners and experts alike. A different, new experience every day, if you choose.

Wrap up warm
Winter hiking
and snowshoeing
Hiking is especially fun in winter. On foot or with snowshoes on your feet. So you can even stamp through untouched snow without sinking too far. In Wangen im Allgäu you can rent snowshoes or book guided snowshoe tours.

After all, they take you all the way over to St. Gallen on the Swiss side, whose monastery had a great deal of property and influence in the Allgäu. So the only thing is to come back.
