Description

As the day slowly settles and the mountains are bathed in warm evening light, a truly special experience begins. On the guided Sunset Tour to the Bischofer Joch, you head into the evening atmosphere together with an experienced guide – step by step up to the viewpoint, covering 550 metres of ascent in around 2 hours.

Once at the top, you are greeted by tranquillity, sweeping views and an atmosphere that is hard to forget. The mountains reveal their most impressive side in the evening hours: the peaks of the Tyrolean mountain world glow in the last rays of sunlight before the horizon bursts into deep shades of orange and red.

The tour is perfect for anyone looking to combine movement, nature and breathtaking scenery – whether as a romantic evening adventure for two, a memorable outing with friends, or simply a moment for yourself. No hotel balcony, no terrace – just you, the mountains and a summer evening you will carry with you long after you return home.

Tip: This tour is also offered as a guided experience as part of the Alpbachtal Card programme!
