Alvierbad natural bathing lake
The water in the bathing lake, with a total surface of 1,400 m², is cleaned biologically by aquatic plants. Located in the heart of the mountain village of Brand, it is fed with pure potable water. The lake can even be heated to ensure optimal water temperatures.
“Mountain Beach” eco-water park
Gaschurn in Montafon has a special pool: Where the peaks of Silvretta and Rätikon remain snow-capped until May, “water babies” can splash around in two huge eco-swimming pools with a water surface of 7,000 m² at an elevation of 800 m. No chemicals are needed to treat the water, as plants and micro-organisms take care of that job.
