    An impressive hut route in the majestic Silvretta in Montafon.

    A route for mountain enthusiasts who appreciate the natural beauty of the mountains as well as refined regional cuisine. The hiking trails lead through the Silvretta past glaciers and the highest peaks of Vorarlberg. The impressive high alpine character of the Silvretta is palpable and experienceable at every step, shaping this stage hike.

    Important: For this challenging route, you should plan your daily stages personally and reserve overnight stays at the huts in advance!

    Due to high demand at the huts, we recommend reserving sleeping places directly at the huts early enough.
