Berwang

The alpine terrain around Berwang is a mosaic of high valley meadows, conifer forest and steep slopes, which has shaped both the settlement pattern and a tourism-led local economy. Set in Tyrol’s Zugspitz Arena at about 1,340 metres, the village is a base for skiing in winter and for walking and cycling after the snow recedes. The Thaneller, a prominent 2,341-metre peak in the Lechtal Alps, rises above the area and gives the valley a strong mountain identity. Berwang’s Parish Church of St Anthony the Hermit anchors its compact centre, while local inns continue Tyrol’s tradition of alpine hospitality.
