Pfafflar was settled from the region around Imst and has belonged to the political district of Imst since 1947. The mountain farming community of Pfafflar is subdivided into three scattered villages. Bschlabs, 8 km from Elmen, encompasses eight smaller hamlets and clusters of farmhouses. Till the middle of the 20th century the presbytery was also the guesthouse "Zur Gemütlichkeit". The hamlet of Boden is situated on a terrace in the upper part of the valley. Pfafflar, which is no longer permanently inhabited, is situated above Boden and is with its 1619 m above sea level the oldest settlement of log cabins in the Tyrol. Since the opening of the popular Hahntenjochstraße Road in 1969, Pfafflar has a connection with the Inntal. Migration could be stopped through the building of avalanche barriers along the Bschlabertalstraße Road in the last decades.
