Malbun is the only resort for skiing in Liechtenstein. It is located at 1,600 metres above sea level in the Alps, on a road to Steg and Vaduz, and less than two kilometers from the Austrian border.
Malbun ski area
Beginners are more than welcome at Malbun as there are many blue runs, hills aren’t steep, and there are only three chairlifts. So it’s almost impossible to get separated from your ski group as you will all eventually catch up to each other at the bottom. On the other hand, intermediate riders can still have a good time here. There are a number of areas to ride off-piste, a few black runs, and even a small snow park.
The Malbi Park Kinderland is located in the centre of the ski area and is the ideal place for children to take their first turns on snow or improve their technique.
From the Maiensäss Steg below Malbun there are 15 km of cross-country skiing trail leading into the idyllic Valüna valley. Three kilometres of this is illuminated at night.
Malbun village
The best areas to find accommodation to visit Malbun are in and around Malbun itself. There are a few hotels and guesthouses in the area, many of which are ski-in/ski-out and offer stunning views of the surrounding mountains. It is also possible to stay in nearby towns such as Vaduz or Triesenberg, which are only a short drive away from Malbun.
The village has a small grocery store, a few restaurants, and a few hotels and chalets.
