“The most beautiful valley end of the Eastern Alps” – that’s how the 670 year old Walser village, located at 1’000 m above sea level, is often referred to. The Lünersee Lake, lying at the foot of mount Scesaplana like a blue pearl and voted the most beautiful place of Austria in 2019, contributes significantly to that beauty. The “Walser village” dates back to the 14th century, when twelve Walser families settled there. Tourism in the Brandnertal Valley already started in the 19th century with the ascent of “Scesaplana”, the highest mountain in the “Rätikon”, a group of mountains in the Eastern Alps.
