An experience for young and old alike

Above Schwarzenberg there is a small outdoor pool that packs a big punch - with fantastic views this is the sunniest and most peaceful spot around!

On hot summer days, the Schoppernau forest pool features shady spots under large fir trees. Those keen on swimming can do their laps in the 25-m pool. The water is a comfortable 24 degrees. Kids splash and play in the kids pool and enjoy slipping down the slide into the water.

A brief foray into the history and materials of bows and arrows opens the door to the world of archery. Learning the correct posture, shooting technique, aiming and letting go awakens the joy of archery.

If you want to feel as though time has stood still, come and visit the Bizauer Obermoos. Tie your laces together, hang your walking boots around your neck, and let your bare feet rejoice in their discovery of many thousands of years of history in the life of a peat bog.
