Wangs

Few communities in Sankt Gallen have a history as closely tied to access to the Pizol massif as Wangs. Set above the Alpine Rhine Valley, Wangs is one of the two villages forming Vilters-Wangs, a municipality created when Vilters and Wangs merged in 1976. Its lift station is a principal approach to Pizol, whose slopes support an established ski and hiking area; in warmer months, trails lead into high Alpine terrain. The broad Rhine Valley below places the village near the borderland shared by Switzerland, Liechtenstein and Austria, while its character remains rooted in a compact settlement and upland farming traditions.
