    Near Gasthof Muntafunerhüsli - circular route towards the football stadium St. Gallenkirch - return

    The trail entry can be made from the parking lot at the football field or at the Silvretta Montafon depot – about 300 meters on the connecting trail (if coming from Gaschurn on the connecting trail, cross the bridge) or when arriving by bus (Montafonerhüsli stop) cross the wooden bridge (direction Gargellen) and then immediately turn left. The Galgenul Runde is beautifully located on the Ill river. It is recommended to go here at noon due to the sun exposure. This trail has very long-lasting snow!

    Many trails in the Innermontafon can be reached via the connecting trail "Ill". From the "Galgenul Runde" to the "Mountain Beach Runde", this trail connects various circular courses. This trail is only promoted as a connecting trail because it lies directly on the winter hiking trail and does not meet our quality standards. In Montafon, the cross-country skiing trails can be used free of charge.
