Description

Your adventure begins quite relaxed with a ride on the Wiedersbergerhornbahn. As you slowly rise higher, you get a first taste of the impressive mountain scenery that awaits you. Once you arrive at the mountain station, breathe in the fresh mountain air – and off you go!

To the summit of the Wiedersberger Horn – a 360° panorama that captivates The first section of the hike leads you directly up to the summit cross of the Wiedersberger Horn. With every step, you feel the power of the mountains – and then you stand at the top: a panoramic view of the Kitzbühel Alps, the Rofan Mountains, and the Zillertal Alps spreads out before you. A perfect moment to pause, take a breath, and let the magic of the Tyrolean mountain world take effect.

Spectacular views from the "Top of Alpbachtal" After descending towards the Hornalm, the new highlight of the region awaits you: the 360° observation tower "Top of Alpbachtal." 13 meters high, made entirely from wood and clad with handcrafted shingles, the tower blends harmoniously into the alpine surroundings. Step out onto the panorama terrace or enjoy the wide view through the large glass fronts – a feeling of freedom that only the mountains can give!

Continuing along the panorama path to the Kohlgrubenalm After a short break, continue your hike along the idyllic panorama path. Passing the Loderstein, over blooming alpine meadows and gentle ridges, you reach the rustic Kohlgrubenalm – a perfect place to enjoy the landscape once more.

Gentle conclusion and return to the valley Finally, you reach the middle station of the Wiedersbergerhornbahn, where you relaxingly board the gondola and float back down to the valley – with unforgettable impressions and perhaps already the desire to come back soon.

This route combines breathtaking views, gentle trails, and authentic Tyrolean mountain feeling – an experience for all who want to feel the beauty of the Alps up close!
