Mittelberg, Austria, is a unique town in that the only way to reach it by road is going through Germany. It is so close to the border, and located on such hilly terrain, that the only road into the town actually crosses over the border. Despite this unusual location, Mittelberg is a thriving tourist destination. It is located near multiple ski resorts, including the Oberstdorf Kleinwalsertal, which straddles the border between Austria and Germany. The area is also well known for its hiking options: the Elfer, the Zwölfer, Mount Bärenkopf, and Mount Widderstein are high peaks that offer a beautiful vantage point from the summit. If you are looking for a quiet location with lots of outdoor activity and a stunning landscape, consider renting out one of these Airbnb vacation rentals and planning your trip to Mittelberg!

These cable cars take you to various points where you can continue hiking up, hiking down, or just enjoying the view—perhaps from one of the restaurants at the summit!
