The joy of exercise
How about pleasurable-walking? Just take it easy – the great thing about Nordic walking is the tranquillity, to have enough time to take in your surroundings.
Nordic walking is a gentle active programme ideal for all ages and performance levels. This type of exercising complements your healthy holiday or health cure here in Allgäu in an invigorating way.
It is best to start off along an easy route, enjoy the scenery and admire the countryside whilst you are moving!
Our suggestion: start with a short picturesque route
The focus is on enjoying the countryside and being in the fresh air, walking through meadows and forests and letting your mind come to rest. What flowers are growing at the moment and at what time do the birds sing the most? The Schwarzenbach Route starts at the train station in Oberstaufen and goes past the school. The total distance of 7.2 km can be completed in about 90 minutes – this route can be shortened to 4.2 km depending upon your condition on the day.
