Water characterizes the Klostertal - scenically, culturally and emotionally. At the Alpine Water Festival, everything revolves around water — as a sensory experience in nature, a responsible source of energy, a subtle touch of luxury in culinary moments, and a bond that brings people and generations together. The program is built on four pillars: Water.EXPERIENCE, Water.POWER, Water.ENJOYMENT, and Water.FAMILY – each offering new ways to connect with this vital element. Genuine. Mindful. Shared.
The Water.Festival is more than just a day trip — expanding your visit will be worth your while. Our accommodations in the Klostertal Valley provide the perfect setting for exciting days surrounded by mountains, lakea, and meaningful encounters.
A unique highlight awaits – something never before seen in Vorarlberg.
Thoughtfully crafted and set to inspire a sense of wonder.

Water.EXPERIENCE
Water.EXPERIENCE
Water is all around us here: as crystal-clear mountain lakes, rushing streams, or fine mist at waterfalls. It accompanies hikes, conversations, and quiet moments. But water can also be experienced in motion. Whether high up in the alpine mountain air or with the wind at your back on a bike.
This is how an element becomes an experience—a pause, a breath of fresh air, a connection. With nature. With the place. With yourself.
Water is movement, change, and energy. Anyone walking through the valley can feel the power with which streams carve their way through the landscape and springs have been bubbling up from the ground for centuries. The offerings in this area are aimed at people who understand this element as a living source of energy—and who also want to think about how to use it sustainably.
Events, that trigger all our senses. Water and enjoyment go hand in hand in the Klostertal valley: whether in the kitchen, when eating together on the riverbank, or in conversation with producers. Here, enjoyment arises from the interplay of landscape, craftsmanship, and hospitality. Regional, authentic, refreshingly different.
The festival offers special experiences for all generations: playful, interactive, and with plenty of room for discovery.
Whether barefoot in the stream bed, at the water playground, or on guided family tours—this is where shared memories are created, connecting visitors with nature, with each other, and with the place itself.
