MTB region
Allgäu
Overview
Allgäu for riders
The Allgäu is Bavaria's green south: rolling grassy summits, deep valleys and the first real alpine peaks as you head toward Oberstdorf and Hindelang. Where other regions sell pure gravity parks, the Allgäu wins on the mix – from family-friendly valley trails to descents off the mountain.
The anchor for lift-served gravity is BikePark Hindelang in Bad Hindelang. If you'd rather flow through the woods, Trailpark Schuiding sits close by, and the Neuland Trail waits around Immenstadt.
Down in the valleys, spots like Bikepark Memmingen and the Dirtpark im Tannachwäldchen near Sonthofen round out the picture – good for technique, jumps and rainy days. Who is it for? Anyone who wants mountains and flow without the crowds of the big alpine resorts.

Trip planning
Plan your trip
Best season is May to October; in high summer the higher trails ride best. Arrive via the A7 (Kempten or Waltenhofen exit) or by train to Sonthofen, Immenstadt or Oberstdorf. Bad Hindelang makes a good base for the gravity days, with valley and forest trails for easy afternoons. Check lift opening hours and trail status before you set off – Allgäu weather turns fast.
