Brand

The landscape around Gemeinde Brand is a steep, forested Alpine valley in Vorarlberg’s Rätikon range, which has shaped both the settlement’s compact form and its economy of mountain tourism and seasonal grazing. The Alvier follows the floor of the Brandnertal beneath slopes leading towards Schesaplana, the highest peak in the Rätikon. Cable cars link the village with the Brandnertal ski area in winter and hiking terrain during the warmer months. Near the head of the valley, Lünersee is a reservoir and a well-used base for mountain walks. Brand’s rhythm of skiing, hiking and Alpine farming gives it the character of a working mountain community.
