Raftsmen’s Interpretive Trail and Log-Driving Site, Rankweil

Highlight • Trail

Flözerlehrpfad, Rankweil
A walk along the Flözerlehrpfad to the Triftanlage in the upper village of Rankweil is informative and interesting for children and parents.
Families walking along the Flözerlehrpfad to the drift facility in Rankweil gain an insight into a long-forgotten world of work. The drift plant illustrates the procurement of wood in the past centuries. The families get information from the information boards on the nature trail.
In the last few years, a part of the overgrown drift facility has been made visible in Rankweil and at the same time a separate raft educational trail has been set up. The age of the almost completely preserved farm could not be determined, but it is known that there was already a mill on the Frutz in 1302.
On the walk along the Trift canal, children and parents enjoy exercise in the fresh air. At the same time, the families learn all sorts of new things worth knowing when looking at and reading through the display boards on the Flözerlehrpfad. The word drift describes the transport of unbundled raw wood on the water. The Flözer's task was to drive felled tree trunks on the water on an improvised raft in a controlled manner.
Families can pick up a brochure about the Flözerlehrpfad (Flözerlehrpfad) in the office at the Citizens' Service of the market town of Rankweil before the planned hike to the drift facility.
