""Königsschlösser nach Rechts" - Füssen 2005" Füssen by sabsi

Füssen Travel Guide: 83 reviews and 258 photos

We used a holiday apartment in Füssen as our base for three days in the Allgäu. From here we went to nearby Neuschwanstein castle but also to Lake Constance and Oberstdorf.

Forggensee, a Bavarian lion and Neuschwanstein

Füssen is a nice little town in the very south of Germany, not far from the Austrian border. It's basically famous because it's so close to the famous castles of the Bavarian kings, e.g. Neuschwanstein.

But even without those this would be a nice place with a colourful old town, a massive castle overlooking town, a big dark-green lake and some mountains very close.

Pros and Cons

Pros:Nice old town, the lake, the mountains
Cons:No nightlife found after 10 pm
In a nutshell:I had a wonderful time here.

Looks sunny enough for a biergarten to me. ;) We are recovered from Kartina pretty well now. Just our freezer is bare from having to eat/chuck all the food in there. :S
