YOUR HOSTS
The Moosmann family
The Moosmann family would like to extend a sincere welcome to guests of the Berghaus Kanisfluh. Representing the third generation of the family, brother and sister team Karin Berchtold and Josef Moosmann junior are there to look after the guests and to cater to their every whim.
The hotel
A small farm once stood on the spot now occupied by the Berghaus Kanisfluh. Following a period of extensive renovation work, the little house on the Schenpfegg, a small hill behind the village of Schnepfau, was transformed into a modern hotel with spacious and well-furnished rooms and apartments perfect for the entire family.
The stunning mountain views of the inner Bregenzerwald are enough to make you stop in your tracks and admire the panorama. Our house has been in the same family since it was built, and is now in the capable hands of the third generation.
