The Bürs Gorge natural monument is not only a natural spectacle in itself, but also offers insights into recent geological history. The "Bürs Conglomerate," eroded by the Alvierbach stream over millennia, has even become a geological term.

Double bridge in the Bürser Gorge

Highlight • Bridge

Adventurous bridge constructions lead through the wild Bürser Gorge. Non-slip shoes are recommended on rainy days, as the wooden walkways can be quite slippery!

Bürser Gorge

Highlight • Gorge

The Bürser Gorge was formed by the interplay of water and ice after the retreat of the glaciers about 10,000 years ago. The Alvierbach stream created a spectacular, almost jungle-like landscape with moss-covered rocks and a rich flora.

Larch meadow – beautiful clearing

Highlight • Natural

Here, the dense forest reveals a lush green clearing. If you're particularly quiet and patient, especially in the morning and evening, you're likely to see deer scampering across the meadow.

May 1, 2024,<14> In 🇦🇹 durch die Bürser Schlucht und durch´s Kuhloch

Since May 1st, the Bürser Gorge has been open again after storm damage. The snow is melting and the mountain water is clear. Anyone who comes to the Vorarlberg region (Austria) should definitely do this. I did the tour without Rica (dog). Dogs are allowed, however.

A trip to the Brandnertal in uncertain weather conditions, the boys in the bike park, I went for a ride through the Bürser Gorge💦 and everyone was happy. By the way, the on-site restaurant "Unicorn" is definitely recommended, especially the burgers and the Kaiserschmarrn!😋👍😁

Following the tip of our landlady that the Bürserschlucht can be accessed safely and safely despite the official closure, we set out to explore the same in more detail at noon today. We started on a small parking space on the road to Bürserberg and the path first led us all the way down into the valley to Bürs and …

I recommend completing the tour even in dry weather, wearing sturdy footwear and, if possible, hiking poles for stability and support on the sometimes uneven paths and stairs.
The tour begins on the outskirts of Bürs. Information panels along the route highlight the geological features.

November 1, 2022,Bürser Schlucht 🇦🇹

The first day of November greeted us with befitting clouds and significantly cooler temperatures than the last few days. So today we decided to run a little round in the valley and follow the course of the Alvierbach through the Bürser gorge. The Alvier rises near Lake Lüner, flows through the village of Brand, then falls into the Bürser Gorge …

May 21, 2023,Bürser Schlucht- Wasserfreude am Alvierbach

Shortly before you turn off into the Brandnertal, you cross the village of Bürs. It nestles close to the steep rock faces that rise up to the Bürserberg. The Alvierbach has created a beautiful gorge here, which is very well developed for tourism (that's why you don't walk alone here on nice days) and includes a few other geological features …
