A cable car whizzes to the 1064m peak of the Pfänder, a wooded mountain rearing above Bregenz and affording a breathtaking panorama of the Bodensee and the snowcapped summits of the not-so-distant Alps. At the top, a 30-minute circular trail brings you close to deer, wild boar, ibex and whistling marmots at the year-round Wildpark (nature reserve). There’s also a Greifvogelflugschau , where birds of prey amaze with aerial feats.
