What to do and see in Bregenz, Austrian Alps: The Best Sights & Landmarks

January 20, 2022 Esmeralda Fenner

Capital of the state of Vorarlberg, Bregenz nestles at the foot of Pfander Mountain, on the shores of lovely Lake Constance. Famed for its summer opera festival, Bregenzer Festspiele, the small town of 27,000 welcomes some 200,000 visitors for dramatic evening productions of Puccini, Britten and other classics, held on a stage on the lake itself. Strolling, boating and swimming are also popular activities. Bicycling round Bregenz's cobblestone streets is an easy and pleasant way to explore.

Amazing lookout! If you are passing by Bregenz, definitely recommend to stop for an hour or two , get up there and enjoy the fresh air. Up there you can see 3 countries in the same time, unique destination, of course if you have some more time , get your hiking shoes out and you can hike up. Because we did not had that much time we decided to take the ride up. Paid 33 euros for 3 adults, round trip. Not sure why everything was closed up there today, 26 Dec, maybe because it is Christmas, so you couldn’t have anything to drink or eat up there. Otherwise everything was fine. Enjoy

Bregenz Festival

Reviewed By passportlifestyles

Whether you are an opera fan or not this is a must-do! We have gone 4 times now and each time has been so impressive. The stage is just incredible and the setting couldn't be better. The opera starts when the sun is still out and you can enjoy the background of the Lake of Constance and the Alps. As the opera progresses the sun sets and with each stage of the sun setting brings upon a completely different feel to the setting and atmosphere. The opera gets repeated so I would recommend going every other year.

I spent a couple of hours wandering along this lovely promenade taking in the sights, sounds and smells of the area. Well layed out the walk takes you along the lake side and past some interesting locations such as the music and performance area, nearby restaurants and the harbour where you can book a short cruise should you wish to. The sun was certainly shining for me!
