Summer adventures in the Montafon

Where summer offers more than anywhere else

The alpine Montafon valley is surrounded by three mighty mountain ranges which, incidentally, couldn’t be more diverse: the limestone crags of the Rätikon, the glaciated Silvretta and the idyllic peaks of the Verwall. With 1,130 km of marked footpaths, this mountainous area is an eldorado for keen hikers, Nordic walkers and nature lovers alike. The historical smuggling tracks of bygone days make especially interesting footpaths. Be sure to visit the picturesque alpine farms and almland dairies, and don’t miss the cosy old mountain huts offering traditional local fare.

The comprehensive network of cable cars and lifts will help you access your favourite viewpoint or the starting point of your walk. Or if you enjoy cycling, why not hire a mountain-bike or electro bike and discover the endless opportunities this wonderful alpine region has to offer? Choose the pace that’s right for you.

If you enjoy climbing, a whole new world awaits: countless rock faces, challenging climbing walls and several superbly equipped high rope parks are all there to be to be taken by storm. Participants in the BergePLUS activity programme:  www.montafon.at/bergeplus can also choose from a daily selection of up to eight guided summer activities, including walking, mountain-biking and climbing. As a guest of Hotel Bachmann you can enrol free of charge. A great activity programme for children ensures that youngsters too will soon become addicted to the adventures lurking in the mountains.

Winter adventures in the Montafon

Whether you prefer pleasant winter walking or challenging ski touring, the winter landscape, with its magnificent mountain peaks and snow-covered forests, exerts an irresistible charm on nature aficionados.

Somewhere in between these two extremes, our great selection of perfectly groomed ski slopes reach altitudes of up to 2,300 m. Skiers and snowboarders have the chance to enjoy the sun in perfect snow conditions, and to visit the various watering holes on the way down! There are ski runs of all possible standards catering for beginners, intermediates and even future winter sports professionals. It’s an easy walk from Hotel Bachmann to the bottom station of the Gargellen gondola; and you can ski down the mountain right back to the hotel.

With the ski bus you can also access more than 64 cable cars and ski lifts, which will whisk you up to all the key points in the ski area. Surrounded by breathtaking views of the mountains, you can explore 246 kilometres of pistes and experience our genuine hospitality in one of our many traditional après ski huts on the mountain. The adventure starts right outside your hotel in Gargellen: as the perfect base camp for your Montafon ski holiday, you couldn’t have made a better choice!
