    Tips

    May 5, 2022

    In the Montafon, agricultural areas at an altitude of between 1,200 and 1,600 m were originally referred to as Maisäß. Due to their wooded hillside location, they were unusable for farming and were cleared. These "clearing islands" could then be used for livestock farming as an intermediate level between the homestead in the valley and the alp above the tree line. The resulting three-stage agriculture shaped the cultural landscape and the life of the rural population for centuries. And to this day the life of Oswald Ganahl. In Bartholomäberg in the Montafon, he and his family run a three-stage farm based on the old model.
