The Pfände towers high above Bregenz. Reachable by the Pfändebahn or on foot, it offers a brilliant view of the wide Lake Constance. At the top station of the cable car there is a wildlife park and several inns.

Ever heard of the cheese hiking trail?? What's there to do? I started in Eichenberg, all parking spaces there are €1/h, take change with you!! Card payment wasn't possible today and the Parkster app doesn't work here.
The path is actually quite easy to walk, unless it's wet and there's a lot of leaves, like it was today.
The information …

February 7, 2024,🇦🇹 Von Eichenberg zum Pfänder ⛰️ mit Panoramaausblicken 🏞🏔🌅, Mittwoch, 07.02.24

Before the announced change in the weather, I went on a tour from Eichenberg on the Pfänderücken on Wednesday. Start on the still free 🅿️ at the church. A parking machine ⏳️🪙 will probably be installed at the beginning of the season (Easter?), the foundation and cables are already ready 🤷‍♂️. The view from the AP Schönblick of Lake Constance …

Yesterday I drove to the Allgäu (now I've completed 2,000 km - three long trips this week and been on the road for almost 24 hours with traffic jams - eeeeeeeeeee).
I gave another singing workshop.
Before that, Zoya and I went on a short hike to the Pfänder. Despite the Sahara dust, it was great to see the mountains …

Today the bikes are off. With the cable car to the Pfänder and a round trip to Eichenberg and back. Great views of the lake and mountains along the way. As a reward, there should be a stop at the Schwedenschanze. As so often with us: Unfortunately closed today. But all hell broke loose on the Pfänder summit.
On the …

August 8, 2025,Wanderung auf den Bregenzer Hausberg Pfänder 🌞 25 Grad

A final hike in the Allgäu region took us to Bregenz's local mountain, the Pfänder. First, we climbed a bit of a sweaty climb from Eichenberg, climbing more than 250 meters to the Pfänder ridge. From there, we continued through many shady forest sections to the highest point. From there, we enjoyed fantastic (albeit hazy) views of Bregenz Bay and …
