"Höfle Alpe is located at an altitude of almost 1100 meters in the Allgäuerische Diepolz, a district of Immenstadt. It is part of the very interesting and very interesting mining museum Diepolz. From 1896, the Alpe was used by the Bavarian prince Regent Luitpold as a hunting quarter for polite hunting, kidnapped in the old town of Oberstdorf and rebuilt in the Mining Museum. If you see them and visit them at the mountain, don't think they've always been here. But be careful: the ascent is quite laborious for people with restrictions and partly also for children. And the air gets a little thinner here. But the location is really fantastic and you have a wide, uncleaned view of the mountain landscape, especially the Säntis. From here you can also start further hikes – or the “Kuhnigundenweg” (with its moderate 5 km can be planned as a family route). The actual guest room is small but tentative and clear. With our 10-person hiking group we have already occupied almost all places. In good weather it is recommended to sit outside on the terrace and enjoy panoramic views. The furniture is rustic and wood-loaded and alpen-functional. The walls are made of coarse wooden boards. The Höfle Alpe is operated by the people of the “Lustigen Hirsch” (I have to return to this legendary inn – this time was not enough). There is self-service on the Alpe. The menu depends, but is also visible at the tables, pretty tied in light green felt. Offer becomes fertile bread times and Vesper (a lot with cheese), but also warming soups, as well as coffee and cakes. The baked goods are all homemade, the cheese comes from the Diepolz mountain cheese shop. Since I had a very detailed breakfast, I loved a bunch of radishes (plus peasant bread) or a cut liqueur shortly before noon – but both were not offered because of the cold weather, as I explained. It just seems like warm weather? No matter, a simple cheese bread with onion rings, paprika strips and cucumbers (4.90 euros) also made quite wonderful. The bread was hearty, with a pleasantly nutty taste. An unspectacular oat coffee for 2.50 euros. To get to the toilet, you need to leave the guest room and cross a part of the barn that is quite excitingly used as a museal space. But respect: To get the right door, some language skills are required: This is how the ladies’ toilet is marked with “Sui”. Children feel really well on the Alpe – like in the entire area of the Mining Museum – and find great suggestions and opportunities at every corner. The staff is warm and very friendly and will be happy to provide information. Due to the usual weather conditions, the Alpe is usually only open from Easter. In case of doubt, a previous call is recommended."
