Schattwald

Tucked into the western end of Tyrol’s Tannheimer Tal, Gemeinde Schattwald is a place whose character is shaped by its position below the Allgäu Alps, close to the German border. The Vils flows through the valley, whose open meadows are set against wooded slopes and higher limestone terrain. Schattwald belongs to a region where alpine cattle grazing and haymaking still define the seasonal use of the valley floor. The Wannenjochbahn provides access to local ski terrain in winter and walking routes after the snow has gone, while the nearby Oberjoch pass leads towards Bavaria.
