Description

You can still enjoy the first meters of altitude in a relaxed way with the cable car. Once you arrive at the mountain station, you start above the tree line. The path leads you through a lush green high plateau. At the beginning, the path is still gravelly, but after a while it turns into a narrow path. You follow it, past grazing cows and colorful flowers. During the whole tour you have a wonderful view of the mountain panorama. When you reach the top, a dreamlike atmosphere awaits you. Enjoy the views and take a breather before heading back down the same trail. Above the mountain station, you can rest on a bench and let the mountain panorama work its magic on you. The cable car then takes you back down to the valley.

Hidden Gem

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