  • Höhenprofil

    This hiking trail is musical. Hikers can listen to songs and compositions from the Bregenzerwald’s traditional repertoire at 10 stations.

    The entertaining circular trail at the Brüggelekopf, Alberschwende’s local mountain, is a delight. It’s not only the meadows, forests and beautiful views that are a joy on this trail. The mood is lifted by songs and compositions presented by choirs and music associations that are based in Alberschwende and the surrounding areas. The stations consist of a stone, which also serves as a seat. More information about each piece is presented on panels. These also list the lyrics to help visitors sing along.

    Der Folder zum Musikwanderweg ist im Tourismusbüro Alberschwende und bei Bregenzerwald Tourismus erhältlich.

  • Directions

    The music hiking trail on the Brüggelekopf is a hiking route with ten musically designed stations. A song rehearsed by a choir or a music club from Alberschwende, Egg or Schwarzenberg will be heard at each of these stations. The stations consist of a stone, which also serves as a seat, and has a plaque on it that provides important information about the song and band in question.

    Entry into the trail at the Brüggelekopf:
    In Alberschwende Tannen you follow the supply road to Alberschwende’s local mountain. The first station “o Hoamatle” is located directly at the Alpengasthof on the way to the summit, and the next station is at the summit cross. Now follow the path back down to the Alpengasthof and the signpost for “Lorenapass/Bödele”. On the Lorena Pass, turn left and follow the signs to the Berchtoldshöhe back to the Brüggelekopf.
