The snowboarder friendly ski areas feature one of Europe&#8217;s top snowparks and around 30 mountain restaurants (mostly with sun terraces) and an efficient lift system now benefiting from substantial investment in new lifts.<\/p>\n<p>Montafon is easy to get to and there&#8217;s lots of reasonably priced family friendly accommodation &#8211; most of it in Schruns, St Gallenkirch, Gaschurn and Gargellen &#8211; along with 219km of well-groomed pistes and plenty of activities for non-skiers.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ultimate-ski-guide-block\" style=\"margin-top:30px; border-top:1px solid #eee; padding-top:20px;\">\n<h3>Ultimate-Ski Guide to Montafon<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ultimate-ski.com\/ski-resorts\/austria\/montafon\/ski-area\/\" title=\"Ski Area in Montafon\">Guide to ski area, and best mountain restaurants &gt;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ultimate-ski.com\/ski-resorts\/austria\/montafon\/ski-lifts\/\" title=\"Ski Lifts in Montafon\">Ski lifts, lift pass prices, and discounts available &gt;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ultimate-ski.com\/ski-resorts\/austria\/montafon\/ski-schools-guiding\/\" title=\"Ski Schools in Montafon\">Explore ski schools, ski lessons and guiding, and book online &gt;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ultimate-ski.com\/ski-resorts\/austria\/montafon\/ski-hire\/\" title=\"Ski Hire in Montafon\">Discover the best ski hire shops and discounts when you book online &gt;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ultimate-ski.com\/ski-resorts\/austria\/montafon\/getting-there\/\" title=\"How to get to Montafon\">How to get there from nearest airports and book transfers online &gt;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ultimate-ski.com\/ski-resorts\/austria\/montafon\/accommodation\/\" title=\"Accommodation in Montafon\">Where to stay: best hotels, B&amp;Bs, apartments, and book online &gt;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ultimate-ski.com\/ski-resorts\/austria\/montafon\/apres-ski\/\" title=\"Apres Ski in Montafon\">Discover apres-ski bars, restaurants, nightlife and other activities &gt;<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Montafon ski resorts in the south-western corner of Vorarlberg, Austria, are surrounded by three mountain ranges \u2013 chalk cliffs of R\u00e4tikon to the north-west, the Silvretta mountains (with glaciers and 80 peaks over 3000m) to the south and Verwall north-east, with many iconic mountains including Zimba, Drei T\u0171rme (Three Towers), Madrisa, Pateriol and highest peak Piz Buin 3312m.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":501,"featured_media":59390,"parent":1980,"menu_order":29,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"template-type1-more.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[648,681],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2435","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-austria","category-montafon","entry","has-media"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.0 -
