With us you experience your vacation with all five senses. Observe our cows and calves as well as the wild animals in our mountains. Hear the chickens clucking on the farm or the birds twittering in our bushes and shrubs in the garden, the motorized mower will also rattle. Smell the scent of the mown grass during the hay harvest. Taste the fresh hay milk from our cows and feel how soft their fur is.

About Us

Discover the perfect blend of tradition and modern comfort at Schmiedlarhof. Our completely new vacation apartment, meticulously crafted in 2022, features solid wood throughout, ensuring a naturally healthy and inviting indoor climate.

For sports enthusiasts, the surrounding area offers endless opportunities: conquer well-marked mountain bike trails, challenging racing bike routes, or embark on breathtaking alpine tours. If a more leisurely pace is your preference, enjoy an invigorating e-bike ride for approximately 40 kilometers along the picturesque Bregenzer Ache, weaving through stunning regional landscapes. With hiking trails leading directly into the majestic Alps and mountains right from your doorstep, adventure awaits.

A significant benefit for our guests: the complimentary Bregenzerwald Guest Card provides free access to all local swimming pools and cable cars, in addition to seamless bus transportation throughout the region.

Indulge your palate with the authentic flavors of our region. Relish fresh hay milk and free-range eggs directly from our farm, and savor the savory mountain cheese produced from our cows' milk. Explore additional culinary delights and regional specialties at nearby farm and village shops, or allow yourself to be pampered by the exquisite cuisine offered at the excellent restaurants scattered throughout the area.

Animals

We are proud of our regionally typical brown cattle breeding farm with

  • dairy cows, bulls and offspring
  • a few chickens for fresh eggs
  • and the farm cat Schnurri

As master farmers in full employment, we manage our hay-milk farm in traditional three-stage farming. We live and work together as a nature-loving, down-to-earth family in the natural cycle of the seasons. And yes, with us every animal still has a name.

From the milk of our cows we produce the spicy mountain cheese or on the alpine pasture in summer the fresh alpine cheese.
