Smuggler tour (2 days) Switzerland/Austria

In a wonderful landscape, you can explore the world of smugglers. The two-day mountain hike around the Madrisa is an exciting discovery journey on this and the other side of the Swiss-Austrian border. Hiking takes place on historic paths at altitudes between 1,900 and 2,600 m. A GPS device accompanies you and shows you the secrets of the smugglers, the so-called "coffee holes". For centuries, there has been active trade between the Montafon and Prättigau valleys. Due to the border, the trade became illegal. Today the path across the border is freely passable and offers unique natural experiences and exciting stories.

At the starting point at the Madrisa cable car in Klosters, you receive a GPS device and all the information about your smuggler tour. This also includes the coordinates for the first hiding place. Along the route, you have to find 12 smuggler depots. All depots contain interesting facts about the world of smugglers and a puzzle, with whose solution you find the next hiding place on your route. A former customs hut at the border serves as a shelter, where you learn interesting facts about smuggling as well as details about famous smugglers on both sides of the border. 

You spend the afternoon and evening at the Schafberg Hüsli. The booked package includes overnight accommodation and a hearty dinner as well as a large breakfast for an optimal start to the second smuggler day. 

After completing your hike, you return the GPS device at the valley station of the cable car. There, a reward awaits you for successfully completing the smuggler tour.
