Bartholomäberg via Lutt to Valleu Chapel

The path leads from the center past the Hotel Berger Hof on the paved Luttweg (passing the municipality office) heading northwest. The very flat path goes straight through the Lutt parcel into a gravel path. Time and again, breathtaking views open up into the Walgau with the town of Bludenz or to the opposite "Vandanser Steinwand." Shortly afterwards, the path leads through a forest about 300 m slightly uphill and then downhill again. After just over an hour, you reach the Graves parcel (1,100 m). Follow the signpost towards the chapel, which you will reach after about 25 minutes. Here you have reached the outermost point of the beautiful hike. With a fantastic view towards Bludenz, this spot is perfect for a break.

The same path leads back to the Graves junction. Here you turn right towards Marentes. This section is one of the most beautiful on this hike. After about 30 minutes you reach Marentes. In Marentes, on the gravel path, slightly uphill again, you reach the Lutt parcel. From here, it goes back on the same paved path to the center of Bartholomäberg.

Beautiful hike even in midsummer because the path partly leads through shady forests. No refreshment options, so bring a backpack with provisions.
