Winterstaude

The Winterstaude peak rises to 1877 meters above sea level, offering views across the Bregenzerwald region through a network of marked hiking paths.

Throughout centuries, local farmers have used the slopes of Winterstaude for alpine agriculture, establishing traditional dairy production practices in the surrounding meadows.

The mountain's Alpe Wildmoos, at 1400 meters elevation, maintains the regional tradition of producing alpine cheese, butter, and yogurt from local cattle.

Hikers can access Winterstaude through multiple routes, including a 16.9-kilometer circular trail from Bezau that incorporates 1490 meters of vertical ascent.

The summit features metal chains installed along steep sections, providing safety measures for climbers while maintaining the natural character of the mountain paths.
