Natur Bewusst erleben

If you follow the designated paths and routes, you are sure to come across your favorite places. In this way you also respect protected areas, because many animals and plants need special protection. Especially in winter, any disturbance costs the wild animals unnecessary force they need to survive.

Standing on the top of a mountain at sunrise is a special experience. But the morning and evening hours are also the time when most wild animals are in search of food. If they are disturbed, they get stressed. If it cannot be avoided, please stay on the marked path, do not use a bright headlamp and enjoy the silence.

We think it's obvious: you don't throw trash in nature - instead you take it back home. Please also take organic waste with you, as it is composted much more slowly at high altitudes. You can dispose waste properly at home or in you accomodation. Please keep in mind that there are no trash bins in public places in Kleinwalsertal. 

If you are looking for a quiet place, then please at least 50 m away from water. Bury excrement or cover it with a large stone. Use fallen leaves or recycled toilet paper and put the paper back in a trash bag.

Is your furry friend always under control, even if they smell marmots, deer or other wild animals? Keep dogs on short leash near grazing cattle. If an attack by a grazing animal is forseeable: leash off immediately. There are numerous dog stations in the valley for the disposal of dog bags. The farmers and alpine farmers will thank you, because manure in meadows and fields contaminates the feed and makes grazing cattle sick.

Everyone loves to enjoy a special piece of earth for themselves. But most of the time we are not alone. No problem, because in Kleinwalsertal there is enough space. Take your time, clear the way for each other, support when someone needs help and always give a smile. With all this, nothing stands against a relaxing nature experience.

Alpine landscapes impress with their contrast: imposing mountain tops and natural forests alternate with valleys and well-tended meadows. Even in Kleinwalsertal, this diverse landscape is no coincidence, but the result of an interplay of natural and cultural landscaping. Behind this is the work of farmers, alpine farming and forestry as well as hunters. With their work, they ensure biodiversity as well as the touristic attractiveness of the valley.  Let's say 'thank you' by staying on designated trails and enjoying regional products.

Whether on a ski-tour in winter or on a mountain tour in summer, anyone who is out in alpine terrain has to be prepared. This includes careful information and tour planning as well as the right equipment. Correctly assessing alpine dangers requires a lot of knowledge and experience. Why not learn from professionals and go on tour with one of the experienced guides?
