Montafon
Unforgettable holiday moments in a region with character
Discover the Montafon
Alpine grandeur, living culture and diverse experiences
Around Hotel Bergerhof in Bartholomaeberg, the Montafon valley opens up a holiday world that uniquely combines alpine grandeur, rich cultural heritage and diverse experiences. The valley stretches over 39 kilometres, encompasses eleven villages and is nestled between the Verwall, Silvretta and Raetikon mountain ranges. With the Piz Buin (3,312 m), Vorarlberg's highest peak is also located in the region. It is precisely this combination of striking mountain scenery, genuine village character and ample room for relaxation that makes the Montafon so appealing for discerning holidaymakers.
Summer in the Montafon
In summer, the Montafon delights visitors with scenic hiking areas and attractive excursion destinations for families, active travellers and those seeking relaxation. The Golm adventure mountain is accessible by cable car year-round and, with its Alpine Coaster Golm, is one of the best-known leisure attractions in the region; the ride covers a 2.6-kilometre track from Latschau to Vandans. Another impressive destination is the Silvretta-Bielerhöhe at over 2,000 metres, where Lake Silvretta and the dam circular trail combine high-alpine nature with spectacular views. For a quieter experience, the Kristberg in Silbertal offers a family-friendly mountain with wonderful scenery and a relaxed atmosphere.
Winter in the Montafon
In winter, the Montafon reveals its remarkably versatile side. In addition to ski days in the major resorts, snowshoe hikes, winter walks and tobogganing opportunities invite you to enjoy varied holiday activities. For Bergerhof guests, the nearby ski resorts of Golm and Hochjoch are particularly attractive: Golm combines family-friendly winter sports with a broad mountain experience, while Hochjoch, as part of Silvretta Montafon, offers scenic mountain moments and sporty ski days. At Hochjoch, the "Hochjoch Totale" is a standout winter experience, descending 1,700 vertical metres as Vorarlberg's longest valley run all the way down to Schruns.
History and Culture
Those who wish to experience not only nature but also history and culture during their holiday will find rewarding destinations throughout the Montafon. The Montafon Homeland Museum in Schruns is one of the oldest museums of its kind in the Alpine region and provides insight into the valley's traditional way of life. The Alpine and Tourism Museum in Gaschurn is dedicated to the region's mountaineering and tourism history. Close to Hotel Bergerhof, the Historic Mine of Bartholomaeberg with its accessible St. Anna Gallery offers a particularly authentic glimpse into the Montafon's past.
More Than a Holiday Region
The Montafon is far more than a beautiful holiday destination. It is a place for refined holiday days, featuring impressive panoramas, remarkable sights, diverse excursions and the wonderful feeling of returning to a peaceful, pleasurable retreat after an eventful day. That is precisely what makes a stay at Hotel Bergerhof in Bartholomaeberg so special.
