Farm holidays in Vorarlberg: Milk, cheese and mountains

Vorarlberg is the smallest of Austria's federal states by area, and the most concentrated in the portal. Seventeen of the 23 farms are located in the Bregenzerwald , six of them in Schoppernau and three in Egg.

What these farms have in common is milk. 15 of the 23 farms are dairy farms and 12 are mountain farms. These are the highest proportions of both types on the entire portal, even surpassing the Allgäu region with 62 percent. Seventeen farms have cows, you can help with milking on six, and with haymaking on twelve.

The Bregenzerwald and the Cheese Route

Why is there so much milk here?

Three-stage farming has been practiced in the Bregenzerwald for centuries: the animals migrate from the valley to the lower alpine pastures throughout the year and to the high alpine pastures in midsummer. This farming method is recognized by UNESCO as an intangible cultural heritage, and it is the reason why there are so many small dairy farms here.

For you as guests, this means: Milking takes place daily on 15 farms, and you can help out on 6 of them. Across the entire portal, there are only 113 farms offering this service.

What will become of this?

Bregenzerwald mountain cheese and alpine cheese are protected designations of origin, and the Bregenzerwald Cheese Route connects dairies, cheese cellars, and farms along a signposted route. Four farms in the region have their own farm shops.

Kässpätzle with mountain cheese is a dish you'll find everywhere. Ask your hosts which nearby dairy is open; many work with them themselves.

Zieglinde recounted

65 percent of farms in Vorarlberg are dairy farms and 52 percent are mountain farms. These are the highest percentages on the entire portal, and Vorarlberg even surpasses South Tyrol in the number of mountain farms. For a state with only 23 farms, I find that remarkably clear.

And something else unusual: 5 farms offer carriage rides. Out of 23 businesses, that's roughly one in five; across the entire portal, it's one in twenty. I do enjoy being driven around.

This farming method is recognized by UNESCO as an intangible cultural heritage.
