About Schruns

The homes are grouped fairly tightly around the town, and many have a sauna or a private pool, with room for a larger group in a good number of them. The railway from Bludenz ends here, which means you can arrive without driving.

As the valley's main town it has a lively atmosphere and good infrastructure.
