Malbun (German pronunciation: [malˈbuːn]) is a ski resort village in an exclave of the municipality of Triesenberg, in Liechtenstein.[1]
Malbun is the only resort for skiing in Liechtenstein. It is located at 1,600 metres (5,249 feet) above sea level in the Alps, on a road to Steg and Vaduz, and less than two kilometers from the Austrian border.[2] In 1968, five Swiss artillery shells accidentally hit it, damaging a few chairs that were sitting outdoors.[3][4]
