By public transportation:

Trains and buses connect the towns regularly, every half hour or every hour depending on the route. You can find suitable connections in the cleVVVer mobil schedule app. Bus stop for the onward journey to the Silvretta-Bielerhöhe: Partenen Bergbahnen. From the bus stop, it’s about a five-minute walk to the Vermuntbahn valley station. You can then take the Vermuntbahn and the tunnel bus through the wintery high-mountain landscape to the Silvretta-Bielerhöhe.

By car:
Take the A14 to the Bludenz/Montafon exit. Then follow the Montafonerstraße L188 to Partenen, where the Vermuntbahn’s valley station is located. Free parking is available at the Vermuntbahn valley station. From there, you can take the Vermuntbahn and the Tunnelbus to the Silvretta-Bielerhöhe.

You’ll find places to stop for refreshments and restrooms at the Silvretta-Haus or the Berggasthof Piz Buin.

You can use the cross-country ski trails in the Montafon for free. Please note, however, that some longer cross-country trails and connecting routes from the Silvretta-Bielerhöhe toward the Paznaun Valley may require a fee.

If you don’t have your own equipment, there are various options for renting winter sports gear in the Montafon.

The cross-country ski trails are updated by the responsible staff on site depending on weather and snow conditions.

The short high-altitude cross-country trail is a great way to acclimate to the altitude of over 2,000 meters, warm up, or work specifically on your cross-country skiing technique.
