Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We started from the Audi Arena towards Nebelhorn and hiked all the way to Rubihorn. It is a steep way up but you get rewarded with a stunning view. The way down was via Gaisalp and Wallraffweg. Just incredible and, if you are fit, highly recommended!

We took the 3 lifts to the top of the mountain where there is a cafe and viewing deck. Then went down one stage to sit in the sun in deckchairs at another cafe

We have been up a couple of times before but have never made the top in Winter. The views are spectacular and you get to watch the brave souls starting their ski run from the top. If the weather is suitable, you'll see the paragliders jumping off, soaring way up above you before descending down to Oberstdorf. The restaurant is very reasonable, price wise, and the food is good.

Small ski area but still a decent amount of skiable terrain on a powder day. If you decide to stay at the Hut on the mountain, watch out for school groups, they’re annoying.

A must see when in Oberstdorf! The view from the top is priceless, and the facilities (café, bathrooms etc.) are also very impressive at 2224 meters elevation.

We took the cable car up to the neblehorn, cost around 90euros (2 adults, 14 year old, and 12 year old (who was free) . We picked a fantastic day for it - it was the week before christmas, so not very busy with families or skiers. It was a clear, sunny which meant the views were spectacular, we could see for miles over the alpine peaks. We stopped for lunch at the restaurant at the top - food was great (although a little pricey, but was to be expected). We watched 2 paragliders take off which was amazing. We also trekked on the snow which the children loved. All in all an awesome day and would recommend highly

Nice view, nice hiking track but really busy area. At down station employees are not capable to tell you if it is praticable for hiking due to recent snow fall. Otherwise really surprise to see parents going in cable car to 2000 meters with 2-3 months old babies. They should be not authorized to go in cable cars and so high due to altitude.

On a sunny day go as early as possible otherwise you stay in line for quite a long time to get up to the mountain. When it is cloudy it is often on top very cloudy and misty no vieuw

How long, at least approximately, does it take to go from the bottom to the top? And how long at the top on average?

On the Blue runs it would take around an hour + but the very top was shut off due to the high winds, it was only open as a view point.
Itâs a fantastic mountain to ski on!

Will the cable car to Nebelhorn be open on May 22nd this year? I thought I read elsewhere that it won’t be open until later but then I’m seeing reviews and pics on here from early May in past years. Thanks!

We are thinking about going here beginning of May. Are the lines long at that time, and how much time should we set aside for this activity?

May is a very popular time outside the skiing season, so better be early at the lift. There are 3 stations to the top and you have to change gondolas each time. We disembarked at the second one and hiked to the top. This can take 2 hours but at the peak there is a restaurant and one can relax and enjoy the sights. Plan a full day for this outing as you may want to watch the paragliders and discover flora and fauna.

could you also recommend a great place to stay in the area. We will have our own car, so in no need for public transportation unless hotel is a distance from the station.

how much time should be allotted for travel up the mountain and back down. (all the way to Nebelhorn)…? will there be time to hike if we arrive in the morning hours

Hello Lucille! It takes approximately 20-25 minutes for the cable car ride itself. How long it will actually take you to go up and down depends on the waiting times, which we can hardly forecast. But we recommend to arrive between 08.30am and 09:00 am as the waiting times are usually the shortest at that time of day. That would also give you enough time for a hike of about 7 hours before you take the gondola back down to the valley.

I'm thinking of skiing at Oberstdorf next February, with my two teenage daughters who have each previously been on two one-week ski trips with their school.
Would you recommend Oberstdorf, and can you recommend anywhere to stay?
Some specific questions:
1. what are the queues like, both for the initial cable car and once on the mountain?
2. what options are available for visiting the other nearby ski mountains (e.g. Felhorn); is there a shuttle bus, and does one lift pass cover all?
3. In February is it typically possible to ski all the way down into the town from the top of Nebelhorn, and, if so, how difficult is the terrain?

So there are buses connecting all three lifts, the my all run through oberstdorf.
A good place to stay is the Oberstforf Hostel. It's very well priced and very clean!
Skiing is easy there are 4 different gondolas going up different areas, all have green and blue slopes coming off them, you can ski right down into some towns but only of you run down the Fell-horn into oberstdorf (it's a red or black).
The list pass covers sll the areas and is typically 37 euros a day, you can get ones just for each lift area at a reduced rate.
Hope this helps
