Description

The Smugglers‘ Tour to duty-free Samnaun offers a unique hiking experience combined with shopping. From Ischgl village centre, take either the Fimbabahn or Silvrettabahn up to Idalp at 2,300 metres. Then, ride the Flimjochbahn to Viderjoch at 2,700 metres, the border between Austria and Switzerland. Next, take the Flimsattelbahn to Alp Trida. After a short walk, reach the Alp Trider Sattelbahn.
