Details

Description

You can still enjoy the first altitude meters quite relaxed with the cable car. Upon arrival at the mountain station, you already start above the tree line. The path takes you through a lush green high plateau. At first, the path is still gravelly, but after a while, it turns into a narrow trail. You follow this past grazing cows and colorful flowers. Throughout the entire route, you have a wonderful view of the mountain panorama. When you reach the summit, a dreamlike atmosphere awaits you. Enjoy the view and treat yourself to a break before heading back down the same way. Above the mountain station, you can rest on a bench again and let the mountain panorama take effect. Then take the cable car back down to the valley.

Hidden Gem

The homemade elderberry syrup spritzer at the Seilerhütte restaurant is worth a visit.
