Lünersee circular route

The Montafon Alpine Mosaic showcases the scenic diversity of the Montafon. Four themed areas—Verwall, Silvretta, Rätikon, and the valley—illustrate how geology, nature, and the cultural landscape are intertwined.

Along 34 themed trails, you can discover the unique features of these diverse landscapes. Starting points, themes, and stories along the trails continually offer you new perspectives on the Montafon.

So: Choose an exploration area, lace up your hiking boots, and discover the diversity of the Montafon step by step.

Starting Point
Brand, upper station of the Lünerseebahn

Directions
From the Lünerseebahn mountain station, the trail leads you to the Douglass Hut. From there, turn right toward Schesaplana and hike along the shore of Lake Lünersee until you reach the Lünersee-Alpe.

From the Lünersee-Alpe, the trail continues to the observation deck and then back down to the dam. Crossing the dam brings you back to the Douglass Hut and the Lünerseebahn mountain station.

The loop around Lünersee takes about 2.5 hours and is therefore well-suited for families with children.

End Point
Brand, upper station of the Lünerseebahn

Getting to the Starting Point
The starting point for the tour is the Lünerseebahn mountain station in Brand. Please note the Lünerseebahn operating hours.

By public transportation:
The Landbus Montafon and the Montafonerbahn offer a convenient and flexible way to get around the valley. Trains and buses run regularly between the towns, every half hour or every hour, depending on the route. You can find the right connection HERE. Bus stop for the start/end of this tour: Brand Lünerseebahn. From there, take the Lünerseebahn to the starting point of the hike.

By car:
Take the A14 to the Brandnertal exit, then follow the L82 to Brand until you reach the end of the valley at the Lünerseebahn valley station. Paid parking is available at the valley station.

For the hike, we recommend wearing sturdy, ankle-high hiking boots with a good grip. Be sure to bring a hiking backpack with plenty of food and drinks, as well as protection from the sun and rain. Hiking poles can provide extra support if needed.

On the sunny lakeside terrace of the Douglass Hütte, right on the shores of Lake Lünersee, you can enjoy the surrounding mountain scenery while taking a break.
