The Legend Hiking Trail

The Verwall habitat was once home to many happenings.

The Legend Hiking Trail tells of legends and sagas, which in the Montafon often revolved around the miners who used to live on the Kristberg and Bartholomäberg, but also around Christian events and moral transgressions. Passing by exciting scenes in the former mining area, the trail mostly runs in the shady forest, and also offers beautiful views of the Verwall and Silbertal.

The Silbertal is a mysterious and legend-steeped side valley of the Montafon. People have been recounting the Montafon legends for centuries, thus carrying the past into the present. Immerse yourself in this experience and walk in the footsteps of the past.

Did you know that...

a research team from the Goethe University in Frankfurt am Main has been excavating in Bartholomäberg since 2000?

“During the Bronze Age, people clearly left their mark behind.”

Dr Rüdiger Krause on the excavations in Bartholomäberg

Decode the history of the Montafon

As the oldest settlement in the valley, Bartholomäberg is a strong source of fascination. “The ‘treasures’ hidden in the ground are important historical sources that help reconstruct the life of earlier people and the Montafon natives,” says Dr Rüdiger Krause, professor at Goethe University in Frankfurt am Main. Together with his team he has been intensively examining traces since 2000.

Thanks to the excavations, we now know that mining took place 3,500 years ago, which is far longer than previously thought. Researchers were able to find evidence of mining from the Middle Bronze Age on Bartholomäberg at 1,450 metres thanks to C14 dating. It is therefore one of the oldest demonstrable mining areas in European mountains. According to Krause, the discovery “resembles a minor sensation since the experts previously considered Bronze Age mining in the mining area of the Montafon impossible.”
