Schruns AT

Ernest Hemingway probably made Schruns more famous than it would otherwise be. He visited here in 1925 and fell in love with it long before it became the ski resort it is today. It is one of the first areas  you will reach in the Montafon ski area.

Where?

Located close to the Swiss and Italian border Schruns is the main town in Montafon and is surrounded by the mountain ranges of Verwall and Ratikon.The railway Montafonerbahn ends here and the buses start from here to all the other ski resorts in the valley. Munich airport has a transfer time of approximately three hours. Alternatively you can fly to Zurich and then take a train to Schruns, which only involves one change.
