Event Concludes: Outdoor Swimming for Dogs is Over.

The dog-friendly swimming season is coming to a close in Allgäu, Germany, with two pools in Neugablonz and the Kleiner Alpsee in Immenstadt hosting a special event on September 14th.

Dog owners looking to join the fun must present a valid vaccination certificate, proof of liability insurance, and the dog's ID tag at the cashier. A fee is charged for each dog participating in the event at the Kleiner Alpsee pool in Immenstadt, while dogs can enter for free at the Neugablonz pool. Humans accompanying dogs at the Kleiner Alpsee pool in Immenstadt are eligible for discounted entrance fees.

The event will take place from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM, marking the end of the swimming season. The pool water contains chlorine, as regular swimming activities took place the day before. It is recommended that dogs have a walk before visiting the pool.

The dog swimming event is not the only activity taking place on September 14th; hiking opportunities are also available. Participants can join the long-distance hiking network at any point during the Allgaü Hiking Trilogy, which invites participants to long-distance hiking, with options to start in Kaufbeuren or Immenstadt.

The Allgaü Hiking Trilogy offers a dog-friendly long-distance hiking network and accommodations for dogs at the end of the first day's journey. After the dog swimming event, hiking paths around Kaufbeuren and Immenstadt offer various routes.

For those looking for dog-friendly accommodations, the Allgaü Portal provides a "Pets allowed" filter under "Search & Book" to help find suitable lodgings. The event will take place in both Immenstadt and Kaufbeuren.

The dog swimming event in Neugablonz is organized by the Erlebnisbad Neugablonz (the Neugablonz Adventure Pool) as a traditional season-closing event. The organizer for the dog swimming at the Kleiner Alpsee pool in Immenstadt is not explicitly named in the search results.

In addition to the dog swimming events, the Allgaü Portal offers 84 suggestions for half-day hiking tours for those looking to extend their stay in the beautiful Allgäu region.
