Description

You take the Acherkogelbahn up to Hochoetz. From there, you hike along the wide forest path on the right side down to the Acherberg Alm. The path continuously descends, making it somewhat more difficult on the way back.

At the Alm, you can enjoy not only the stunning view but also cheese and butter made on site.

There is plenty of fun for children with the animal sound box and the pedal mill!

With a lot of strength, the path is also possible with a stroller.
