Excursions by car

Nature and culture, shopping or swimming fun – the hotel Scesaplana in Brand is the perfect centre for delightful excursions in the vicinity.

You would like to look at the Brandner valley from another point of view? In this case we recommend you to drive up to the Muttersberg near Bludenz. The spectacular panorama opens up to you from the mountain peaks of the Verwall, the Silvretta group via the Rätikon until the Swiss mountains.

Majestically sitting on her throne above Feldkirch – the Schattenburg (the fortress of shadows), built in the 12th century, witness of a historical period. Breathe the air of the Middle Ages and look at the extensive collection of antique weapons collected by the knights of Montfort.

When in Feldkirch, you should definitely plan a walk through the game park. Rare animals, a children’s adventure playground and an educational trail on forestry make the game park of Feldkirch into a genuine experience for everyone.
Where, nowadays, can you hear the wolves howl? About 25 minutes by car from Brand.

The Inatura in Dornbirn is one of Europe’s most modern museums of nature. Here you experience the wonders of nature in spectacular presentation. A virtual walk through the habitats of mountains, forests, water and town shows you the beauties and variety of Vorarlberg’s nature.

Another highlight is the Rolls Royce Museum in Dornbirn. Discover the fascinating world of the renowned British automobile and experience the British Empire in the worldwide unique and most impressing collection of Rolls-Royces of the family Vonier. You can reach Dornbirn in 40 minutes from the hotel Scesaplana.

The Bregenz Festivals, a superlative: the largest lakeside stage, the most interesting producers, the unique opera performances and, for 50 years now, one of the world’s greatest orchestra’s: the Vienna Symphonic Orchestra.
An international audience has been attracted to this event; many come because of the productions on the lakeside stage, others for the much esteemed performances of rare operas in the opera house and the symphonic concerts. Just a tour of the imposing lakeside stage is an experience of a special kind!

The Kunsthaus Bregenz is a place of exhibitions of international modern art and a place of permanent discourse about art and questions of design. A special point of interest is the so-called archive-art-architecture in the intermediary areas of modern art and architecture/design.
Bregenz is about 50 minutes from the hotel Scesaplana by car.
