Description

We start our hike right at the valley station of the Hochbrixen gondola lift. From there, a cleared winter hiking trail leads us directly behind the gondola lift up the mountain until we reach the mountain road towards Nieding - Hochbrixen. We continue uphill along the road, passing the beautiful Nieding mountain inn, which invites us to take a break halfway up.
Continuing uphill, we arrive on foot at the Hochbrixen ski world, the perfect place to meet up with friends who are out on the slopes. We take the same route back down to the valley as we did on the way up, or we take the opportunity to float weightlessly down to the valley in the gondola lift and enjoy the magnificent view over the entire Brixental valley.
