Our rain magic program
Excursion tips for rainy days
Gray skies, thick clouds, rain? Our suggestions for beautiful moments, whatever the weather.
Sometimes it's precisely these days that open up new perspectives. Because when the outside takes a break, the focus shifts to the inside - with culture, crafts and experiences that create space for mindfulness and exchange.
In addition to Vorarlberg's museums and sights, you will find a varied alternative program for your vacation in the Alps in the Montafon, from the activity park to the Silbertal forest school.

Melting snow in spring is no guarantee of snow-free trails. And sometimes the odd snowflake can even be seen in April or as early as October, in the fall.

Activities with children
Movement finds its place - indoors and outdoors
Exercise doesn't know bad weather, only new possibilities. When the rain knocks on the windows or drums on the hood, it doesn't mean a break. It means: A change of perspective.
In the bouldering hall, you not only challenge your muscles, but also your skill and courage. A tennis match in the hall will get your energy, focus and joy flowing. And outside? Wet trails, clear air and that special calm that only rainy days bring.
You decide where you want to get moving. But one thing remains the same:
It's not about functioning, but about feeling. Powerful, alive, completely with you.
Wellness & Relaxation
Enjoy peace and quiet, recharge your batteries and gather strength for everyday life. This is exactly what awaits you with the wide range of wellness offers in the Montafon. Whether in the indoor pool or in the sauna: here you can let yourself be pampered and let your soul come to rest.
