Tour description

An impressive hut route in the majestic Silvretta in Montafon.

A route for mountain enthusiasts who appreciate the natural beauty of the mountains as well as refined regional cuisine. The hiking trails lead through the Silvretta past glaciers and the highest peaks of Vorarlberg. The impressive high alpine character of the Silvretta is palpable and experienceable at every step, shaping this stage hike.

Important: For this challenging route, you should plan your daily stages personally and reserve overnight stays at the huts in advance!

Coming from Bludenz, take the Bludenz/Montafon motorway exit and follow the L188 via Schruns to Partenen to the toll station for the Silvretta High Alpine Road. From there, continue on the Silvretta High Alpine Road to Vermuntsee.
