Your Montafon spring on the Kristberg in Silbertal

An active start to spring: Hiking, biking, culture and enjoyment

When the last snow fields melt at high altitudes, spring begins on the Kristberg in Silbertal. The Montafon Kristbergbahn takes you directly up to 1,441 m above sea level and you can feel nature awakening: fresh greenery covers the slopes, streams babble and the sun gives you new energy. Perfect for anyone looking for authentic nature experiences far away from the hustle and bustle.

🚶 Hiking and e-biking up to 1,800 meters - spring on the sunny slope

Thanks to the sunny mid-mountain location, the trails on the Kristberg are free of snow from as early as May. The Kristbergbahn therefore offers ideal starting points for the first spring hikes and e-bike tours. While there are still snowfields at higher altitudes, you can already enjoy colorful nature, clear mountain air and quiet paths here.
