About Pfunds-Samnaun
Pfunds is a municipality of about 2,600 people at around 970 metres, 19.7 km south of Landeck and 5 km short of the Swiss border, close to the tripoint with Italy. It is made up of two villages, Pfunds-Dorf and Pfunds-Stuben, plus a scatter of hamlets, and tourism is its main living. The village was first recorded in 1282. This is where roads part: one branches off into Switzerland and duty-free Samnaun, the other climbs on towards Nauders and the Reschen Pass. The homes are close together and run large, and many have a garden.
