Oberstdorf is the world’s very first municipality to use completely pollutant-free propellant techniques in their commuter traffic system.

The latest low-platform busses equipped with the latest-generation of electric and hybrid driving techniques, in addition to the fuel cell driven bus which is to be used as from the summer of 1998 for the first time ever in the world, just go to show that you don’t have to go without mobility for the sake of the environment. That also goes for the energy supply - 40% of the electric current comes from the municipality’s own hydroelectric power station, „Warmatsgund“ and Bavaria’s largest communal solar plant. The use of regenerative energy has been incorporated into the traffic policy of Oberstdorf’s environmental scheme. The first non-pollutant energy circulation has been concluded. With its pace-setting ecological conceptions, Oberstdorf heads the list as far as their compliance with the ... „local agenda 21“ is concerned. All these points go to show that it is even possible to become a pioneer by way of the motto „Back to nature“. All-embracing ... Protecting the environment is always a worthwhile issue. At Oberstdorf, all your senses benefit from it. The cleanness of the air is ranked first-class and even the taps provide refreshment at a mineral water quality with such a low sodium content that it is even suitable for preparing baby food. The sun shines abundantly on the magnificent landscape and the soul also profits from the multifarious experiences made in such natural surroundings. Other factors are the varied climate levels that are naturally salubrious - from the mild climate down in the valley to the stimulating climate up in the mountains. Could there be any better reasons for doing good to your body and soul?]]> Tue, 07 Apr 2009 12:15:46 GMT http://www.oberstdorf.de/en/nature/heres-to-the-future.html http://www.oberstdorf.de/en/nature/through-seven-valleys.html As many as seven valleys join the Iller valley at Oberstdorf, each one of them with its own character and unmistakable charm

As many as seven valleys join the Iller valley at Oberstdorf, each one of them with its own character and unmistakable charm

The jagged Trettach valley, for instance, with its impressive mountains, the untamed Oy valley or the peaceful Stillach valley, to mention just three of them. In the midst of them all lies Oberstdorf. Not only right in the heart of nature but also in one of the sunniest regions in Bavaria. All-time Any time is the right time to fortify your health. However, the autumn is especially recommendable given that there is seldom fog and plenty of sunshine. Not only is the circulation preserved particularly well then but also mother nature shows herself at her colourful best at this time of the year. A contemplative walk in a multicoloured autumn forest can do wonders. Especially when the forest happens to be located in the nearby mountains, for the oxygen intake in the blood is increased through physical exercise at altitudes of over 1000 m. So just take a deep breath and recharge your batteries! Whether you are on a health cure or „only“ on a wholesome holiday, whether you are on your own or accompanied by the whole family, our wide recreation programme is offered the whole year round and taking care of your health is an issue that should never be put out of season, anyway. ]]> Tue, 07 Apr 2009 12:15:46 GMT http://www.oberstdorf.de/en/nature/through-seven-valleys.html
