If you take Watzenegg as your starting point and hike in the direction of Palmern, you will reach the Schwende Alp after a 40-minute walk. After this moderately difficult tour, you stand at 910 metres above sea level above Dornbirn and are rewarded for the ascent not only with the view. At least if you reach the hut between the end of April and the beginning of November after half past eight in the morning. Then there is cider, made especially for the hut visitors. They also serve homemade cakes and pies as well as classics like Lumpensalat. In addition, you can enjoy Kässpätzle. However, these are only available if ordered in advance.
