A scenic circular trail from the top station of the Karwendel cable car, with lifelike replicas of Alpine animals and breathtaking views
Starting at the top station of the Karwendel cable car, this circular hike first passes the Alpengasthaus Karwendel. The wide trail winds through the impressive mountain landscape, running beneath the cable car line. Along the way, life-size replicas of Alpine animals and interpretive panels provide fascinating insights into the wildlife of the Alps. The final section of the trail follows the edge of the ski slope back to the top station.
Take the regional bus (line 8332 or 390) to the Karwendel cable car in Pertisau and get off at the "Pertisau Karwendellift" stop.
There are two large paid car parks at the cable car station. The parking fee is refunded for cable car passengers and holders of the Achensee Holiday Card.
