One quad and one figure-eight gondola, one heated

Six chairlifts and 24 T-bar lifts open up around 40 kilometers of slopes around Oberstaufen. In addition, there are a good 100 kilometers of groomed cross-country ski trails, about 80 of which are certified as DSV Nordic Aktiv centers and uniformly signposted. On the 2.6-kilometer-long Kalzhofer trail, tireless cross-country skiers can still do their laps in the evening under floodlights.

With the Pistenbully through the white winter splendor
After all, with the Oberstaufen Plus guest card, you could get to the top by mountain railroad free of charge and without any problems. And also back down again. But sometimes it has to be something special. Or you can't decide in time for the last Jagertee at the top. That's why the Ski Arena Steibis in Oberstaufen has had the "Pistenraupentaxi" since this year.

In the cabin of the snowcat, up to 20 people can be driven through the Imberg area. During ski operation, of course, only off the slopes. This fun is only possible by reservation and costs 150 euros per hour, but is perhaps the most comfortable way to get back to the valley station after a sociable and cheerful round in one of the alpine and mountain huts of the Imberg area.

New in Oberstaufen: a "Wirtshaus im Park" (inn in the park)
and a guest card as a ski pass for vacationers. Other resorts with only nearly as sophisticated a clientele have a posh "Kurhausrestaurant," Oberstaufen has closed it and replaced it with a "Wirtshaus im Park." This is not a descent from the firmament of connoisseurship, but an aggressive commitment to Alpine hospitality and the demanding needs of spoiled vacationers. Whether "turbot with gold leaf" or "Fleischküchle" a la Oberstaufen: Sissi Priller and Harald Müller, who have made a good name for themselves and a large circle of friends as tenants of the gastronomy in the renowned Bayerischer Hof for twelve years, set new accents with the "Wirtshaus im Park". Traditional inn cuisine, regional dishes and a seasonal menu are the basis for their "Art and Pleasure" concept. Artists and stars, cabaret artists, jazz musicians and folk musicians find a stage in the guest room, and changing picture exhibitions adorn the walls.
