Climbing highlights in the Montafon

...means more than just climbing peaks - it's the feeling of freedom in the Röbi gorge, the amazement in the Gauablick cave and the deep connection with nature on the Piz Buin ascent.

Montafon climbing tip:

Via ferrata Madrisella - a real gem

Arrive, take a deep breath, marvel. Almost 2,500 meters above the valley, a panorama spreads out that is more than just a view - it is a moment of fulfillment. If you reach the summit of Madrisella via the new via ferrata on the northern slope, you will see the mountain from a new perspective - striking, impressive and embedded in the alpine landscape. Deep below you, the Nova Valley stretches out, while the wind underscores the silence. So, are you ready for a real nature experience?
