Events & Highlights
There’s always something going on in the Tannheim Valley all year round. In summer, running enthusiasts lace up their trainers for the Lakes Run, whilst cycling enthusiasts battle their way over the mountains in the cycling marathon.
When the Christmas markets set up their stalls in December – at Lake Vilsalpsee, in Reutte, in Bad Hindelang or in Füssen – the air is filled with the scent of roasted almonds and mulled wine. Ehrenberg Castle entices visitors with the fairytale-like Lumagica light show. And in January, the International Balloon Festival takes place, where you can watch the action or even take in the view of the surrounding area from high above.
Every season has its highlights – the Tannheimer Valley always reveals a different side to itself.
