Lauterach: Discover Nature, Riverside Paths and Culture

Lauterach combines protected natural areas, paths along the water, art and lively events to create a diverse destination. Those looking for a holiday apartment or holiday home can plan their stay entirely according to their own interests: with a break in nature, a walk along the Bregenzerach, a day of swimming at Jannersee or a cultural visit in the town.

Experience nature: Lauteracher Ried and the Bregenzerach

Covering around 580 hectares, Lauteracher Ried is a European protected area and shapes the natural character of the surrounding area. In the core zone, only signposted paths may be used all year round. This rule is part of consciously planning a stay in the Ried: Stay on the marked paths and take time to experience the landscape attentively. For families and other travel groups, this provides clear guidance for walks, without any specific walking time or level of difficulty having to be inferred from the path regulations.

Another specific way to discover the landscape is the Lauterach-Rieden riverside circular trail. It begins in the Achpark in Lauterach and runs along the Bregenzerach. Those who like to include paths along the water in their personal daily plans when choosing accommodation will find an independent excursion option here. The Sandplatte is also located on the Bregenzerach and is designated as a protected natural monument.

Art and agricultural history

In addition to its natural areas, Lauterach also has cultural points of interest. The Rohnerhaus regularly presents exhibitions and events featuring contemporary art. This allows a stay to be complemented by current artistic impressions, regardless of whether the focus of the trip is on activity, relaxation or culture.

At the exhibition depot, you can experience historical equipment and cultural artefacts from Lauterach’s agriculture. The site offers an insight into the agricultural past and complements the contemporary focus of the Rohnerhaus with a historical aspect. Those travelling with children can note both themes as different discoveries: contemporary art here, equipment and cultural artefacts from local agriculture there.

A day of swimming, festivals and meeting places

Jannersee is an idyllic place to relax and take a break in nature. There are opportunities for swimming, walking and unwinding. A stay in Lauterach can therefore also include quieter days when several programme items do not have to be combined. Whether you are planning a day of swimming or simply looking for a break in the countryside, Jannersee provides a distinct focus among the possible travel experiences.

The events calendar includes the annual Moschtfäscht organised by Bürgermusik Lauterach, featuring the tapping of a Moscht cask. For young people aged 12 to 15, the youth club night in Lauterach is a regular meeting place for listening to music and dancing. These different formats appeal to different interests and age groups and may play a role in travel planning if the timing of the respective stay allows.

On Lauterach Market Days, Café Vielfalt run by Lebenshilfe Vorarlberg is open all day on Thursdays. Coffee, cake and savoury snacks are served. This provides a specific place to eat and drink for a market day that you can take into account when planning your day.

Which accommodation suits your plans?

The choice of a holiday apartment in Lauterach can sensibly be aligned with the experiences you want. Nature lovers can put Lauteracher Ried, the riverside circular trail or Jannersee at the centre of their plans. Those looking for variety can add the Rohnerhaus, the exhibition depot or a suitable event to these destinations. A holiday apartment or holiday home thus becomes the starting point for your personal combination of nature, water, culture and local events. The first decisive factor is which travel style suits your group and which experiences you actually want to plan during your stay.
