  • Directions

    The Nenzinger Himmel is accessible by foot (4 hours starting in Nenzing) or by shuttle bus.

    The trail leads from the bus station over a forest path to the Panülalpe. Some alpine pastures provide Alpjausen (snacks) and drinks. You reach the romantic Hirschsee via the long distance trail 102 and further to the street that takes you to the Setschalpe that is managed by a Shepard. We continue on a hiking trail, partially on a road, until we arrive at the Gamerdonaalpe, Vorarlberg’s biggest Sennalpe (dairy). Via the street you get back to the starting point (bus station or Alpengasthof Gamperdona).
