A village that's alive.

Bezau combines the life of a small village with the openness of a small town. Between Lake Constance and the Arlberg lie mountains, cafés, small shops and paths in every direction, right at the door. Dive into village life and be out and about, or simply stay in bed all day — no problem in the Bregenzerwald.

Hiking & Ski bus

Hiking & ski bus, line 832. Just hop on. No car, no parking, no stress. The bus stops right outside our door — to the summit in summer, to the slopes in winter.

Käsknöpfle Schönebach

Käsknöpfle, just the way they should be. Deep in the Bregenzerwald, in a Vorsäß settlement, at Jagdgasthaus Egender in Schönenbach, you'll find Kässpätzle worth taking the toll road for. For good reason.

Sarah kocht

Urban. Regional. Just right. Sarah cooks at Posthus in Egg — and once you've been, you come back. Lunch menu, small à la carte selection, dinner. Organic wines, homemade bread, a kitchen that thinks beyond the Bregenzerwald while staying deeply rooted right here.

Pizzaria GAMS 1648

Wine, pizza, flowers — and a house with history. A main building from the 17th century, open from the cellar to the fourth floor. Inside: a wine rack that grows over several floors, fresh pizza from the wood-fired oven and a place that feels like accidentally landing somewhere special.

Vorsäßsiedlung Schönebach

Hike Baumgarten Schönebach

Take the cable car up, hike across alpine meadows and high trails, and at the end, Schönenbach and a good meal await.

Summer activities

Bike & Hike Hirschberg

By bike from Bezau to Schnepfau and up to Schnepfegg, then along the farm track toward Hirschbergalpe up to the Hirschbergsattel. From there, the final 45 minutes on foot to the summit — on the Hirschberg, a magnificent view and pure relaxation await. The way back follows the same route, at an easy pace, where a well-earned ice cream sundae awaits as a reward at Berghaus Kanisfluh.

Bike & Hike Sienspitze

By bike to Bizau and on toward Schönenbach, then up to Hintereggvorsäß. First on paved road to Obere Hintereggalpe, then the final thirty minutes on foot to the summit — at the Sienspitze, solitude, sunrise and an unforgettable view await.

Summer activities

Grüne Wiesen und Wälder, eine kleine Siedlung im Tal, umgeben von bewaldeten Bergen unter einem klaren blauen Himmel mit wenigen Wolken.

Bike & Hike Häleköpfle

By bike toward Obere, on into the Sandrise district, and then via Fegg to the Seefluhalpe. From there, you can leave your bike and continue on foot. The climb to the summit takes about another 30 minutes, leading first across a meadow, then through the forest. The Seefluh is a real hidden gem — most of the time, you'll have it all to yourself, unless you end up sharing the summit cross with a goat.

Hike Sättele

From the center of Bezau, head via Greben onto the forest road toward Sättele — a route that brings pure relaxation all on its own. A narrow forest path leads up to the Sättele, where absolute stillness awaits, before an easy stroll along the Bizauer Bach brings you back to Bezau, completely relaxed.
