    A very beautiful circuit walk through the alpine pasture settlements of Schetteregg.

    The route leads from the ski and hiking district of Schetteregg into the mountain pasture districts of Eggatsberg and Hammeratsberg, where one can see many traditional Bregenzerwald-style mountain pasture cabins. A little later, one arrives at the Alp Untere Falz, which offers a fine view of the mountains to the south, Bullerschkopf and Winterstaude. The trail leads up to the Alp Obere Falz, continues over the Alp Brongen and back to the starting point at Schetteregg. There is active farming in the alps from June through mid-September.

    Chanes to stop off for a drink/food:Alp Untere Falz, Alp Obere Falz, Brongen Alp, Gasthof Jokler, Gasthof Schetteregger Hof
