Details

Description

You can enjoy the first few metres in altitude in a relaxed manner on the cable car. Once you arrive at the mountain station, you start above the tree line. The trail leads you through a lush green high plateau. At the beginning, the path is still gravel, but after a while it turns into a narrow path. Follow it past grazing cows and colorful flowers. Throughout the tour, you have a wonderful view of the mountain panorama. When you reach the summit, a dreamlike atmosphere awaits you. Enjoy the view and take a breather before heading back down the same way. Above the mountain station, you can rest again on a bench and take in the mountain panorama. Then take the cable car back down to the valley.

Hidden Gem

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