The Ski Resort
Southwest of Kempten you can find the Thalerhöhe ski lifts in the community of Missen-Wilhams in the Upper Allgäu. Skiers and snowboarders have a total of four kilometres of pistes at their disposal. Two T-bar lifts, a rope lift and a practice lift transport the guests. The skiing area is especially suitable for families and beginners due to its predominantly blue marked slopes. There is also a spacious practice area for the smallest beginners.
Winter sports enthusiasts can choose between the Gaisbuckel, the family run, the Birkenhang slope and the Multi run. With the exception of the Birkenhang run, all runs are marked in blue. If you need help with your first turns, you can turn to the Hörburger Ski and Racing School.

Snow Safety & Snowmaking
On Mountain Dining
There is a small snack bar directly at the lifts, which invites you to stop for a bite to eat. Freezing skiers can warm themselves up with a hot tea and strengthen themselves with a pair of white sausages. For dessert we recommend one of the homemade cakes.
Must-Ski Runs
Beginners, who have already practiced a lot, should try the only red marked downhill run "Birkenhang" (3).
Nightskiing
If you want to speed down the slopes after dark, you have the opportunity to do so every Friday when floodlight skiing takes place from 18.00h to 21.00h.
