Sonnenalp Resort

No one does mountain resorts quite like Germany, and the expansive Sonnenalp in Ofterschwang is exemplary of the form. Still family-run, it’s slowly grown over the course of a century into what it is today: a four-season escape combining Alpine tranquility, contemporary luxury, and a characteristic focus on wellness. Accommodations range from singles to private lodges and chalets; restaurants include a hearty breakfast, multiple fine-dining options, and much in between. And for leisure there’s the 20,000-square-meter Sonnenalp Wellness World, in addition to facilities for golf, tennis, horse riding and just about every winter sport you’d care to name.
