Tourbeschreibung

The path shows how the landscape is enclosed by mountain streams and how much influence they have on the lives of the Montafon people. The shady path leads from the valley station of the Golmerbahn along mountain streams through light mixed forest, to mountain stream barriers, gorges, and roaring ravines, over bridges and to small waterfalls.

Description

On this hike you feel the fascination of the mountain streams. Whether at eroded gorges, small waterfalls, bridges, mountain stream barriers, or roaring "ravines" immerse yourself in the world of falling water. Due to the path through the shady forest and the proximity to the cooling water, this hike is a great way to escape the summer heat, especially on hot summer days.

Approach

Take the A14 to the Bludenz/Montafon exit and continue on the Montafonerstraße L188. Turn right at the Hosensee towards Golmerbahn Vandans.

Public transport

The local buses of the Montafonerbahn operate throughout the Montafon. The main lines run every half hour from Schruns station.

Directions

Starting at the valley station of the Golmerbahn Vandans, the hiking trail leads along the toboggan run (in winter) to the wayside shrine "Granna". Along a narrow hiking trail, the path snakes near the Aualatschbach stream to the Landschisott district. After briefly leaving the forest, the route continues on the right-hand side with a steady rise and fall along the mountain above Vandans. Further intermediate destinations are Mularintsch and Mansaura before reaching the Rellsbach stream. From this very distinctive mountain stream, follow the stream path downhill back to the starting point at the Golmerbahn valley station.
