Lawena is an Alp (alpine pasture) in southern Liechtenstein, located in the municipality of Triesen. The Lawena Power Plant (Kraftwerk Lawena) is the oldest hydropower station in Liechtenstein. There is also an electricity museum there, the Lawena Museum. The Alp Lawena is located in a basin-like high valley at around 1,500 metres (4,900 ft) above sea level. The alp is framed by the mighty Falknis, the Mittagspitz and the Rappenstein and is a good starting point for hikes. The alp can be reached from Triesen in about 2–3 hours.
