Staufen has had market rights since 1453. The important town in the Allgäu region, close to Austria and Switzerland, saw the rise of several wealthy families who built representative houses here centuries ago. After the currency reform in 1924, however, a large number of second homes and condominiums were built in Oberstaufen until the 1970s, which damaged the overall appearance of the town.

Iller Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

Sometimes very coarse gravel. Could you do something once a year, Iller cycle path between Kempten and Krugzell is better maintained and more pleasant to drive.

Happy cows and great mountain views near Suiters, Oberallgäu.

Highlight • Viewpoint

For many generations, the people of the Upper Allgäu region have been producing delicious cheese. It's available directly from the many dairies, in village shops, and in good grocery stores. Today, I was smarter about taking photos. While hiking, I once lay sweating in a pasture and was licked by a cow. South of Suiters, you'll have a fantastic view of the mountains, weather permitting. The boy rode up and down on his e-scooter.

Once again great weather for cycling (the east wind that blew me down from Hellengerst to Weitnau at 73 km/h died down in the afternoon). A few meters in altitude have to be managed, but with the panorama it is easy to forget your tired legs.
From Oberstaufen it is mostly flat - pure enjoyment!

Today I cycled to Staufen, a really nice tour with a beautiful view of the Nagelfühkette and the Allgäu mountains.
