Tracing the Landscape
The Landscape path between Gaschurn, Partenen and Galtür offers a look at the area between Innerfratte and Paznaun. There are impressive views that have become the scene of historical facts. Striking modern developments show the potential for conflicts between various interest groups. A conscious look at natural and cultural values makes it an exciting encounter in the Montafon and Paznaun. Welcome to the Landscape path, Gaschurn – Partenen – Galtür! The starting point for our expedition is the church in Gaschurn, near the dance arbour. We’ll follow the street past the Tourism Museum, about 200 metres into the valley until we turn towards the Aussertafamunt or Outer Tafamunt just northeast of the Maria Schnee Chapel. Looking towards the Pension Lucas, we discover old wooden stalls. These are the last two huts left from a large ensemble of huts where the goats from 3 – 4 farmers were kept. Just past the tennis courts we come to a forest street which we will follow for about 400 metres before we reach the foot path to Aussertafamunt. Climbing up the mountain, the first thing we pass through are the young forests. Stone walls, protecting the valley, fragments of clearance cairns, impressive Sycamore trees as well as the remains of rotting hay barns can be seen along the path before we reach the May Field settlement: Aussertafamunt. We hope you have a relaxing and educational hike! Nice to knowIf you don't go to the Heilbronner Hut, the hike can be made in one day. Buses and lift are free in the Montafon and the Brandertal for holders of the Montafon-Silvretta-Card. A free information booklet can be picked up at the tourism offices in Gaschurn and Partenen. The book "Der Landschaft auf der Spur" by Maria-Anna Moosbrugger is also available in the tourism offices. Information
