Land: Vorarlberg
Altitude: 398-2,090m/1,306-6,860ft
The Bregenzer Wald (Bregenz Forest), the northern part of the Vorarlberg Alps, rises from Lake Constance to the Arlberg. The lower parts consist of rounded hills, partly forest-covered; higher up it is dominated by rugged peaks. The deeply slashed valley of the Bregenzer Ache descends from the Hochtannberg to Lake Constance, into which the river flows at Bregenz, and through this valley runs a federal highway which gives easy access to the holiday areas and the fine walking country. In spite of its name there is relatively little forest left in the Bregenzer Wald, large areas having been cleared in past centuries to win grazing land. The meadow-covered slopes of the hills
