The best hotel in the diverse holiday region of Montafon in Vorarlberg
The small town of Gaschurn near Schruns in Austria is probably best known for the Silvretta High Alpine Road. In summer, the region around the hotel in Gaschurn is an El Dorado for mountain biking and climbing tours and long hikes.
By the way, the Silvretta High Alpine Road is also great for cycling uphill on a racing bike. From the Silvretta-Bielerhöhe, you can start fantastic high-altitude hikes with magnificent mountain panoramas, such as Piz Buin (3,312 m), the highest mountain in Vorarlberg. The Verwall Natura 2000 European protected area, a nature reserve in Austria set in an idyllic high moor landscape, with the Wiegensee lake, is definitely worth a visit. The Lünersee, one of the largest natural lakes in the Eastern Alps, also invites you to linger by and in the turquoise waters at an altitude of 1,970 m, especially in summer.
Visiting Montafon as a skier? In winter, Gaschurn, with its location in the southern Montafon, has perfect access to the Silvretta Montafon ski area with 140 kilometers of slopes, which offers excellent slope conditions until mid-April. From the Silvretta-Bielerhöhe, you can head into a breathtaking area.
