Stanz

Tyrol


If all the fresh air and activity of Landeck have worked up a thirst, pop over to Stanz, 3km away. Set on a sunny plateau dotted with apple and plum orchards, the village has 150 houses and a whopping 60 schnapps distilleries. There are a number of rustic huts where you can kick back and taste the local firewater before rolling back down to the valley.
