Haldengass is a prominent residential neighborhood in the municipality of Eschen, extending along the steep southern slopes of the Eschnerberg. Due to the terraced arrangement of the buildings, residents benefit from an unobstructed panoramic view over the Liechtenstein Rhine Valley to the striking peaks of the Sarganserland. Geologically, the area is characterized by the stable rocky subsoil of the mountain ridge, which enabled the construction of sophisticated hillside architecture. The development of Haldengass took place primarily during the settlement expansion of the 20th century, with a focus on high-quality individual living space. In addition to its residential function, the street serves as an important starting point for hikes to Rofenberg and the chapel located there. The quiet location far from the main traffic axes makes the district one of the most sought-after addresses in the Unterland, while the steep topography demands athletic mobility from its residents.
