Muttersberg - Alpe Els | Bludenz

From the mountain station of the Muttersberg cable car, a road leads to the Tiefenseesattel. On a gentle incline - with a magnificent view of the surrounding mountains - the trail continues to the farmed Alpe Els. The idyllically situated alpine pasture below the Gamsfreiheit is a popular destination for hikers and mountain bikers. Delicious alpine products invite you to enjoy and linger. The way back follows the same route.

Author's recommendation

For those who still have some condition, a short ascent (approx. 45 min.) to the Elser Fürkele is worthwhile. A sensational view of the Rätikon mountains and the valley awaits you. Back on the same way!

Equipment

Ankle-high mountain boots with treaded soles, sun and rain protection, snack, filled water bottle and first aid kit. Mobile phone for emergencies.
