Tour description
Join Erna as she takes you on a journey to discover the highest mountain village in the Montafon and follow old smugglers' trails through the stunning natural and cultural landscape surrounding Gargellen.
Located at 1,423 meters above sea level, Gargellen lies directly on the border with Switzerland. The mountain village and the surrounding Rätikon region were once the scene of illicit cross-border trade: goods were smuggled into Switzerland and back into the Montafon via hidden mountain trails. To this day, old paths and historical traces tell the story of this unique past.
On the Gaglaweg, you’ll join Erna on a varied discovery tour through Gargellen. Along the way, you’ll encounter quiet forest trails, small bridges, historic lime kilns, and spots with stunning views. Between Rüti, Ronggalpe, and the geological “Gargellner Fenster,” you’ll experience a landscape that invites you to look closely and pause thoughtfully.
