Culture & Events
Hikers can follow in the footsteps of the Walser people on a thematic trail around the village of Schröcken and the neighbouring village of Warth. The Walser people, who originated in the Canton of Wallis in western Switzerland, first settled on the Tannberg mountainside in the 14th century. Their traces are still visible today and can be observed when hearing the local dialect.
Activities
For hikers and mountain climbers, the village of Schröcken is a compelling area. Numerous trails lead to the peaks of the Wartherhorn, Biberkopf and Widderstein mountains, as well as to the picturesque Körbersee lake. The high-elevation village with its spacious ski area and guaranteed snow is beloved by skiers and freeriders. The Auenfeld jet connects the Warth ski area to Lech Zürs am Arlberg, part of the largest contiguous ski area in Austria.
When it comes to lift tickets, guests in Schröcken have a choice: There is one ski pass for Warth-Schröcken alone or a 3-valley ski pass for the Bregenzerwald, Große Walsertal, and Lechtal valleys as well as ski areas in Allgäu (Germany). Holders of the 3-valley ski pass can also purchase a discounted Ski-Arlberg ski ticket for individual days. Alternatively, guests in Warth-Schröcken can buy the Ski-Arlberg ski pass, which is valid for the entire Ski-Arlberg area with over 305 km of slopes.
Tips
- From June to September, the “Alpmuseum uf’m Tannberg” museum is open.
