An Alpine valley full of tradition

Tradition and custom are still the most important cultural assets of the Montafon today



Special traditions and customs are kept alive in the Montafon.

Whether consciously or unconsciously, you will certainly encounter one or another feature in the Montafon during your time there. Perhaps it will be the Montafon Sura Kees, which is served at breakfast. Perhaps you will see women in the Montafon festival costume in front of church on a Sunday. Or perhaps you will hike past the pastures of the Montafon Steinschaf, without realising that it is a very special animal breed. Here you will find information on the most important features of the Montafon. Take a fascinating journey through the history of the Alpine valley!
