Panorama-AlpenLodge „Ifen" – your home in the mountains
Loft apartment of the Walser Lodge in the Kleinwalsertal · 80 m² · 2–4 people · all year round · pet-free
📍 Austria · Vorarlberg · Kleinwalsertal · 1,100 m · 🏔️ Allgäuer Alpen
You start your day in the Kleinwalsertalwhen the first rays of sun fall through the panoramic windows and bathe the mountains in golden light. At 1,100 m in Mittelberg-Höfle your 80 m² separate holiday apartment „Ifen" in the annexe awaits you – cosy and perfect for 2–4 people. In the open living and dining area with an exposed roof truss real loft feeling comes true: you enjoy the view and relaxedly conjure up something delicious in the Bulthaup kitchen .
In the bedroom with extra-long duvets you find rest; on the sofa bed in the living room up to two more people feel at home immediately. After adventures in the snow or after mountain tours you do a jigsaw together or have fun with board games – boredom stays outside here. In the evening you enjoy the sauna with a valley view or unwind on your sunny terrace in the fresh mountain air.
Whether in spring, when the crocuses bloom outside, in summer on mild evenings, in autumn in the golden light or in winter after the cross-country trail – hikes, cycling rounds and new experiences await you straight from your front door. In winter the ski bus takes you quickly to the cross-country trail or to the ski lifts, and in the evening you return relaxed to the quiet annexe. Your Allgäu-Walser-Pass takes you free of charge with the mountain railways into the Allgäuer Alpen from May to November. For you and your loved one(s) this retreat with a terrace is real holiday happiness.
Walser Lodge – your holiday home between the summits
Every morning the view of radiant mountain meadowswakes you, while your car waits reliably at the house – or in winter free of snow and safe in a garage spacethat you reserve in advance for €8 per night. Small guests snuggle into the cot, allergy sufferers into their special favourite blankets and dive into quiet nights. After hikes or bike tours the traces of your adventures disappear into the washing machine and dryer – and at the dining table you share summit stories, plans for the next adventures and your moments of happiness.
You reserve breakfast or dinner comfortably at the nearby Gasthof Alpenblick, and the Allgäu-Walser-Pass makes you flexible for all your explorations – free of charge and relaxed through the entire valley, where the mountains become an experience and you can really escape everyday life.
Are there several of you? Then simply add the apartments „Elferkopf", „Zwölferkopf", „Widderstein", „Bärenkopf" or „Hammerspitze". Pure togetherness – and yet everyone has their own favourite spot.
Your mountains are calling – we from urlaubshuetten.com look forward to accompanying you to the Kleinwalsertal.
