Golmerbahn, Vandans
During the construction of the power plants of Vorarlberger Illwerke AG, various feeders opened up the high mountain valleys of the Montafon, Paznaun and Brandnertal, which were previously difficult to access. As a result, the Golm Adventure Mountain became open to the public for summer and winter tourism. Modern cable cars, lifts and restaurants were created, which are very popular with guests and locals.

December 19, 1959: Public transport commenced, and thus ski operations at the Golmerbahn. On that day, 221 people were transported.

An absolute highlight is the Roling Coaster, a kind of summer toboggan run on rails. It leads from the parking lot of the Golmer Bahn down to Vandans.
Not cheap at € 12 for adults, but a unique experience.
