Ski holidays Bartholomäberg – sunny balcony of Montafon!

Bartholomäberg

Surrounded by the spectacular peaks of the Silvretta and Rätikon mountains, snow-covered ridges and gently sloping alpine pastures characterise the winter landscape around Bartholomäberg. This quaint mountain village lies in the midst of this picture-postcard idyll on the sun-drenched southern slope above Schruns. It truly deserves its nickname "Cradle of the Montafon" for more than just its location. The Baroque church of St. Bartholomew with its onion dome is the village's landmark and namesake. From its church square, there is a fabulous panoramic view of the Rätikon mountains. The view is even more enjoyable from the panoramic armchairs, a number of benches with hoods that protect against the wind and cold while still allowing a view of the mountains. Day trips to the larger towns of Bludenz or St. Anton im Montafon are easily accessible by car.

In addition to the magnificent Baroque parish church of St. Bartholomew, the "Frühmesshaus Bartholomäberg" museum, one of four museums in the Montafon, is well worth a visit. You can learn about the history of settlement and mining in the area at the historic mine with the St. Anna tunnel. Winter hikes to the museum and across the alpine pastures offer peace and relaxation.

In this peaceful spot, you can enjoy a cultural and extremely relaxing winter holiday.

Montafon

The 39 km long Alpine valley Montafon in Vorarlberg is mainly characterised by the small and traditional villages, and their very conscious interaction with the numerous natural monuments in this impressive mountain region. To maintain the natural surroundings and the local traditions, a club was founded called "bewusstmontafon" (conscious of Montafon) together with a brand logo, which labels all products originating from this region. The tranquil resorts in this traditional valley serve as hide-aways aside from the tourism hotspots, and besides many attractive ski areas, also provide a multitude of leisure time activities, such as winter and snowshoe hike, cross-country skiing, tobogganing and ice skating.
