Tour description
A small but fine circular route in Gantschier over the Gauenstein Monastery. Equipped with a viewpoint, it is an extremely family-friendly route in Montafon.
The Gantschier circular route, which mostly leads through the forest, is well suited for families. The walking time is approximately 1.5 hours, with an altitude difference of 231m to be overcome. At the Landschrofen-Känzili viewpoint, children can linger wonderfully while you enjoy the view or simply watch the children playing. Another highlight is the Gauenstein Monastery, which is a small monastery with a slightly elevated hillside location. Here you get a beautiful view of Schruns-Tschagguns. The JUFA Montafon is perfect for a refreshment stop at the end.
Gauenstein Monastery
The Gauenstein Monastery is one of the most beautiful Capuchin establishments in Vorarlberg. Since the beginning of the 18th century, there was a hermitage here with one or two forest brothers. The little church was consecrated on July 25, 1721 by the Prince-Bishop of Chur to honor the Mother of Sorrows Mary.
