If you like eating well, spending time outdoors and learning about storied pasts, it just might be the destination for you.

Two of the castle ruins are located in Schellenburg: Obere Burg (upper castle) and Untere Burg (lower castle). Obere Burg was built in 1200 whereas Untere Burg was built shortly after around 1250. Both castles served as residences until the 16th century, then were left as ruins after their use as military bases expired. Today, they are open to visitors and their upkeep is the charge of Liechtenstein\u2019s Historical Association.<span class=\"m_-2082298540030121345gmail-Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"m_-2082298540030121345gmail-p1\"><span class=\"m_-2082298540030121345gmail-s1\">2.

These include the Sareiserjoch, Heita, Sass-Seelein and Pradamee trails. Longer and more challenging trails include the F\u00fcrstin Gina Path, running just under eight miles through an Alpine wonderland or the Augstenburg trail which takes you up to Augstenburg peak.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_68513\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-68513\" class=\"size-full wp-image-68513\" src=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kaseknopfle-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kaseknopfle-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kaseknopfle-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kaseknopfle-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kaseknopfle-1-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kaseknopfle-1-453x340.jpg 453w, https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kaseknopfle-1-632x474.jpg 632w, https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Kaseknopfle-1-536x402.jpg 536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-68513\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Flickr CC: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/thisisbossi\/2971431155\/\">thisisbossi<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"m_-2082298540030121345gmail-p1\"><span class=\"m_-2082298540030121345gmail-s1\">3.

However, K\u00e4sekn\u00f6pfle doesn\u2019t come out of a box; it\u2019s a heavy pasta-like dish with Appenzeller and sour cheeses, complete with fried onion rings on top. Typical sides include greens or apples, to balance the heaviness but sometimes it&#8217;s served with a potato salad, so get ready for a satisfying helping of starchy comfort.<span class=\"m_-2082298540030121345gmail-Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/rewards\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>ALSO:<\/strong> Earn some not so tiny travel rewards with Orbitz Rewards\u2014join today!<\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_68518\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-68518\" class=\"size-full wp-image-68518\" src=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Steg-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"531\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Steg-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Steg-1-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Steg-1-768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Steg-1-600x398.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Steg-1-512x340.jpg 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-68518\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Flickr CC: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/npobre\/15927682919\/\">Norlando Pobre<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"m_-2082298540030121345gmail-p1\"><span class=\"m_-2082298540030121345gmail-s1\">4.

There are a few downhill routes, mostly intermediate in difficulty, stemming from the three lifts Hochegg, T\u00e4li and Sareis. However, if you\u2019d rather go cross country skiing, head over to the Steg ski resort area located in the lovely Valunatal Valley; here you&#8217;ll find ski trails in a variety of lengths.<span class=\"m_-2082298540030121345gmail-Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"m_-2082298540030121345gmail-p1\"><span class=\"m_-2082298540030121345gmail-s1\">5.

This is the wine cellar of the prince, located just through the vineyards outside of capital city Vaduz. You may sample the wines here, but it&#8217;s recommended you book in advance and be part of a group visit.

Easy to spot due to its color and tower, it represents housing styles of the 15th century. While the house has had many occupants since its construction, one of its purposes was to serve as the Saint Johann Monastery.
