In autumn: spend a dream holiday in Füssen-Weissensee
Autumn is the ideal time to spend an eventful dream holiday in Füssen-Weißensee. When it is no longer quite so hot outside and the leaves have begun to change color, the climatic health resort Weißensee is particularly attractive and invites you to a variety of activities for the whole family.
A Allgäu picture-book landscape in colorful colors, the healthy mountain air and fantastic views of magnificent mountains - the wonderful nature in and around Füssen-Weißensee is a treat for the senses. In autumn, when the temperatures are pleasant but not so high, you really feel like being active here and spending exciting days. A varied network of hiking trails with ideal routes for every requirement extends around the turquoise Weißensee. If you want to take it easy, simply walk around the Weißensee or one of the numerous other foothill lakes in the area and enjoy the varied landscape and the views of the impressive mountains. Hikes to the region's rustic mountain huts or to the Hohenfreyberg and Eisenberg castle ruins, which are among the most beautiful sights here, are somewhat more demanding.
Adventure and sporting demands await hiking enthusiasts when they climb to the summit, which delights with wonderful panoramic views over the foothills of the Alps. Furthermore, renowned long-distance hiking trails meet around Füssen, such as the Lechweg or the hiking trilogy Allgäu, which hikers can get a taste of during an autumn holiday in Weißensee. If you don't like hiking alone, you can take part in guided tours, for example to the area's sights such as the royal castles Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwangau.
Anyone who likes to travel by bike will also be happy in Weißensee. The hilly foothills of the Alps around the Füssen district are perfect for long bike tours. There are flat and comfortable routes as well as tough trails for mountain bikers and steep passes for racing cyclists. If you want, you can simply rent an e-bike with an electric motor supporting the pedaling movement. This means that even longer tours can be mastered without much effort. A great tour for e-bike riders and recreational cyclists, for example, is the 33 kilometer-long ride around Lake Forggensee. Along the largest Allgäu lake, cyclists can look forward to varied natural impressions and magnificent views of the royal castles and Allgäu mountains. Until mid-October it is possible to combine the Forggensee circuit with a boat trip on the lake. Until then, two passenger ships will be sailing on Lake Forggensee several times a day, stopping at various stops on the shore and also taking bicycles with them. The boat trip on Lake Forggensee is an unforgettable experience for young and old.
In addition to other sporting activities such as water sports, climbing, Nordic walking or hang gliding and paragliding, cultural enjoyment around Weißensee is also not neglected. In addition to the royal castles, you should also definitely visit the romantic Füssener old town. Historical buildings and sights such as the High Castle, the St. Mang Monastery and historic small churches are lined up here. Families with children also have a lot to offer around Füssen-Weißensee, which is recommended by the ADAC as a family holiday destination. Directly in Weißensee there is a playground as well as a guest children's ticket and a varied holiday program. Nearby, the Ziegelwies Forest Adventure Center and the Royal Crystal Thermal Baths in Schwangau ensure that children will love a holiday in Weißensee.
Many sports and leisure opportunities in a fascinating landscape as well as numerous excursion destinations and sights make an autumn holiday in Weißensee a great experience for the whole family.
