The Dornbirner Ach (also known as Dornbirnerach or Dornbirner Ache), along with the more northerly Bregenzer Ach, is one of the most important outflows for the smaller streams of the western Bregenzerwald Mountains and the lower Rhine Valley in the Austrian state of Vorarlberg. Until the Rhine was regulated, the Dornbirner Ach flowed into Lake Constance near Fußach. Today, the approximately 30-kilometer-long river flows east of and parallel to the Rhine near Hard into Lake Constance, crossing the municipal area of the city of Dornbirn. This large bridge is also accessible by car, and the cycle path and pedestrian path are separated from it.

Very pleasant cycling on smooth asphalt, slightly elevated with views parallel to the Dornbirner Ache.

The patronage of "Our Lady of the Snows" – which, in my experience, is not all that common – indicates that this chapel was dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary, but not, as is usually the case, associated with one of her classic feast days (e.g., the Name of Mary, the Nativity, the Assumption, or as Queen of the Rosary). Rather, the search for the origin of "Our Lady of the Snows" leads us far back in church history, to the fourth or fifth century, and geographically from here across the Alps to the Italian capital. On August 5, 363, at the site where the magnificent church of Santa Maria Maggiore stands today, the so-called "Miracle of the Snows" occurred. That is, on that day, in the middle of summer, snow lay on the ground there in the morning because Our Lady wanted a church dedicated to her to be built on that spot. She communicated this wish in a nighttime vision to a wealthy couple – who financed the construction – and to the Bishop of Rome, Pope Liberius. The Roman church has the rank of a patriarchal basilica (papal basilica), and is the origin of all churches and chapels bearing this patronage. In the liturgical calendar of the Catholic Church, the date of August 5, the day of the church's consecration (in the year 432 by Pope Sixtus III), is a "non-obligatory memorial."

A magnificent, modern bridge between Hard and Fussach (completed in 2023) that provides a very comfortable, wide pedestrian and bicycle path to the Rhine crossing. Protected from car and bus traffic, several people can pass each other comfortably, whether by bike or on foot. Truly a wonderful thing!

Fast route, but you have to pay attention to the time of day as there can be strong headwinds depending on the time of day.
