With the hotel´s E-bikes along Lake Constance
Head off from the hotel towards Ried, following the Dornbirner Ache, our local river, until you reach the Rhine Delta nature reserve in Höchst. Our destinations are the two viewpoints at Rohrspitz and Rheinspitz. This trip encompasses two attractive natural bathing spots: cool off in the Bruggerloch pool or directly in Lake Constance at Rohrspitz, the latter of which offers a charming place to bathe shaded by trees, and attendant refreshment facilities. The flat natural terrain is really lovely, with unique plants and birdlife. Continue along the shores of Lake Constance past small idyllic moorings before returning to Dornbirn.

Bödele, a cultural landscape with great views
Bödele has been a popular local recreation area for decades: it’s easy to access, lies above the fog level, has impressively lovely scenery and offers excellent views. To one side you can look out over the Rhine Valley, the mountains of Switzerland and Lake Constance. To the other side a large part of the Bregenzerwald stretches off into the distance.
The guided walk begins on the Bödele Pass, a really idyllic spot set in gentle moorland with a small artificial lake and a walking track surrounded by birch and fir forest.
From Fohra Moos the walk continues towards Hochälpele, a viewpoint and the ideal place for a snack or a picnic.

On the tracks of the Dornbirn textile industry
In the course of the 18th century Dornbirn developed into a textile centre. Until the 1980s textile companies such as Herrburger & Rhomberg, Franz M. Rhomberg and F.M. Hämmerle or Elastisana have shaped the history of the town and its surrounding area. Our tour begins right outside our front door. We head off in the direction of the local river, the Dornbirner Ache, where the “textile barons” set up numerous factories employing thousands of people. Our destination is the idyllic Inatura area, once known as the “Rüsch factory”.
Afterwards we return to the hotel. Duration 3 hours – bubbly and snacks included in the price (½ day trip)
