The Nebelhorn is a 2,224-metre-high (7,297 ft) mountain in the Allgäu Alps in Germany, near the village of Oberstdorf. It lends its name to the Nebelhorn Trophyfigure skating competition and the Nebelhorn Classics, a freeride race event. Also, the Nine Knights freeski contest takes place just above the "Höfatsblick" station of the Nebelhornbahn.
Its summit is a well-known viewing point, from where there is a view far into the Alpine massif.
The summit area of the Nebelhorn may be climbed via the Hindelang Klettersteig; it should only be attempted with special equipment (a 'Klettersteig set').
