フェルトキルヒ周辺のおすすめバス停からハイキング＆ウォーキング

A beautiful hike with many panoramic views. Especially lovely in winter when the fog fills the valley.

Churches are always worth a visit. They offer travelers a place to relax and rest.

A few beavers call this place home. A lovely spot.

In June, the meadows in the Rhine Valley shine in brilliant violet. This is thanks to the blossoms of thousands of Siberian irises.

The trail leads through forests and meadows below Vorarlberg's smallest mountain, the Matschelser Bergle, with beautiful views of the larger mountains all the time.

Here, in idyllic surroundings, the Ill and Rhine rivers meet. The Illspitz run-of-river power plant is also located here.

The castle complex, built from 1200 onwards, was excavated and preserved from 1960 to 1964. Today, it was in a ruinous state, but it is still excellently preserved. Various display and information panels inform visitors about the castle's history. It's only a 10-minute walk from the sports facility parking lot on Rietlestrasse.

Upper Castle, Schellenberg The Upper Castle of Schellenberg and the Lower Castle of Schellenberg are located on the Eschnerberg ridge in the municipality of Schellenberg. They are named after the Lords of Schellenberg, who had them built starting at the end of the 12th century to secure the thoroughfare leading to Italy. In 1317, Marquard von Schellenberg sold the castles, along with their lordship rights, to the Counts of Werdenberg-Heiligenberg. They were succeeded as owners by Count Wilhelm von Montfort-Tettnang in 1412, the Barons of Brandis in 1437, the Counts of Sulz in 1507, the Counts of Hohenems in 1613, the Princely House of Liechtenstein in 1699, and the Historical Society for the Principality of Liechtenstein in 1956. At the beginning of the 16th century, at least one of the castles was likely still intact, as Ludwig von Brandis pledged in 1505 to keep an unspecified Schellenberg Castle open to the House of Austria in the event of war. In 1616, the "Ems Chronicle" described them as "broken." The Upper Castle was originally called Old (Castle) Schellenberg, and the Lower Castle New (Castle) Schellenberg, which is correct according to archaeological findings. In the 18th century, the terms "old" and "new" for the two castles were reversed. Only archaeological excavations were able to clarify this error. Today, the auxiliary terms "Upper Castle Schellenberg" and "Lower Castle Schellenberg" coined by Jakob Bill have prevailed.
