Lawena Alpine Pasture
Lawena is an alpine pasture located in a high basin at 1,500 meters in the Triesen region of southern Liechtenstein. Visitors go here for hiking and to visit the electricity museum, which is located at the site of the country's first hydroelectric power plant.
Getting There
To reach the pasture from Vaduz city centre, travelers typically take a bus or drive toward Triesen and then follow the mountain roads or hiking trails upward. The journey takes approximately 30 to 45 minutes depending on the mode of transport and weather conditions.
Duration of Visit
Allow 3 to 5 hours for a visit. This provides enough time to explore the electricity museum and walk through the basin. Those planning longer treks to surrounding peaks will need a full day.
When to Visit
The area is best visited during the summer and early autumn when the hiking trails are clear of snow. Morning visits are recommended to avoid afternoon mountain weather shifts. It does not typically experience extreme crowds, though it is more popular on weekends.

The pasture serves as a starting point for several nearby peaks. You can combine your visit with hikes to the following locations:
- Rotspitz (1.1km)
- Rappenstein (1.2km)
- Plasteikopf (1.4km)
