Bregenz Forest
Bregenzerwald
Tradition
The Wälder or locals, are loyal to their customs. Each village has its own dialect, traditions and special ways of doing things. They’re a proud people with a certain stubbornness. The saying, “You can take a Wälder out of the forest but you can’t take the forest out of the Wälder….” says it all.
Culture
The deep attachment of the Bregenzer-Wälder to their environment has made them— and the region— very unique. Their ideas, how they think and their values, especially when creating something, are singular and of the highest quality– from handcrafts to architecture to cuisine.
Nature
To appreciate the Bregenz Forest, you need to adopt to the pace of the area. The secret is patience and to slow down. This region will sneak up on you. It’s very straight forward. Just breath-in the fresh cut grass or experience untouched glittering snow fields. There’s no fuss here, it’s just as it should be.
