Rappenloch Gorge

Highlight • Gorge

The nice thing about the Rappenloch Gorge is that it merges seamlessly into the Alploch.
Of course also a gorge. Unfortunately it started to rain on the day of my visit and I wasn't able to hike the Alpenloch to the end.
That means I will definitely come again and deliver more pictures.

Ebniter Straße Tunnels

Highlight • Structure

Great route - wild and adventurous - completely asphalted - don't forget the taillights because of the tunnels!

Dornbirn Ebnit

Highlight • Settlement

Nothing for drivers with weak nerves - driveway above the Dornbirner Ach. Bus line 46 runs every hour from Dornbirn at the local transport tariff - leave your car behind and enjoy!

Mountain village Ebnit

Highlight • Settlement

Only 111 inhabitants (as of 2011), but two inns. What a density! They also have a very small "park" with seating and a playground for children.
Wikipedia: Ebnit is a mountain village in the municipality of the town of Dornbirn in Vorarlberg (Austria). The small village in the mountainous south of Dornbirn is a climatic health resort and, like Lech, Damüls or Mittelberg, for example, is one of the Vorarlberg Walser villages.
Although the place is quietly located in the middle of the mountains, there is hardly any tourism here. There are only two inns (with guest rooms), a holiday village run by the Kolping family, a sports hall, and a few private landlords. Ebnit is the starting point for various hikes.
