Hirschegg

Hirschegg stretches along the Schwarzwasser in Vorarlberg’s Kleinwalsertal, an Allgäu Alps valley whose only road connection leads through neighbouring Germany. Although part of Austria, the settlement’s practical route to the outside world runs via Oberstdorf in Bavaria, an unusual geography that has shaped local life. Kleinwalsertal was settled by Walser people from the Valais in the Middle Ages, and their heritage remains evident in regional customs and dialect. Hirschegg’s parish church of St Anne forms a village focal point, while trails and lifts lead into the surrounding alpine terrain.
