Gamperdona (Nenzing Heaven)
Archaeological finds show that people were present in the Gamperdonatal as early as the Bronze Age (approx. 1800–800 BC) and that the pastures there have probably been used for alpine farming since that time. Hunting and alpine farming have been documented since the 15th century. The last large-scale bear hunt took place in 1782.
Due to the fertile hunting and pasture areas and the special geographical location, the Gamperdonatal was the scene of sometimes bloody clashes between local farmers and hunters, poachers, smugglers and cattle thieves, who often invaded from neighboring Swiss Grisons, until the 20th century. Numerous stories and legends bear witness to this.

Since alpine tourism slowly began to develop in Tyrol and Vorarlberg towards the end of the 19th century, the idyllically situated Gamperdonatal has also become increasingly interesting as a leisure and recreation area. In addition to the first accommodations in connection with alpine farming, hunting and customs, which are still in operation today, huts were increasingly built for recreational purposes. In the 20th century, a holiday village with over 200 huts, an inn with a hotel, a coffee house and a grocery store was created. Butter and cheese production as well as milk sales in the Senntum. Since only citizens of Nenzing are allowed to build, a large part of the tourism in the Gamperdonatal is of local origin to this day.
