Deeply rooted in history, Wängle was first documented in 1278 and served as the religious center of the province for centuries. The imposing St. Martin’s parish church, built between 1702 and 1704, captivates visitors with its artistic ceiling frescoes by Franz Anton Zeiller and has shone in renewed splendor since an extensive restoration in 2004.

Wängle also shines in winter: The extensive cross-country skiing network of the Reutte Nature Park region runs directly along the village’s edge, offering cross-country skiers a wide-ranging connection to the Lechtal valley. For winter and snowshoe hikers, the snow-covered fields around Wängle provide breathtaking routes for extended walks.
Wängle uniquely combines tranquility, nature, and excellent access to the region’s tourist infrastructure – a true gem for those looking to experience relaxation and activity in perfect harmony.
